Greene Family Reunion

Registration and Information Packet

 

What then shall we say to these things? If God is for us, who can be against us? No, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us.

Romans 8:31 and 8:37  

Dear Greene Family,

We are extending an invitation to our family near and far, to join us in Phoenix, Arizona for the 2017 Greene Family

Reunion. Save the Date for September 22 – 24, 2017 and make plans to join us for a weekend of planned festivities and

fun events for the entire family to engage in during the weekend.

As the Family Reunion Committee started planning this year’s reunion, we wanted the focus of the events to revolve

around the meaning of family values, traditions and history as the reason for family gatherings such as this reunion and

take a moment to remember how it all began. Reunions are more than just a celebration; it helps to serve three

purposes: Preservation of the past, inspire the present by building a strong foundation and secure future success for the

next generation. It is important that we inspire and lift our future generations with the love of a united family,

regardless of our differences.

This year, we have added a Family Reunion website to benefit the entire family. It gives you the ability to Register and

pay online, Upload Family Photos, keep up with Reunion News, and so much more. We hope you will take advantage

of its many features and visit the site www.greenedinosaurlegacy.myevent.com.

The Reunion Committee has been working hard to bring together an excellent package at a reasonable price, while

making it an event that is memorable to each generation. We encourage you to reach out with any questions,

suggestions or concerns by speaking to one of the committee members or if you have computer access email us at

greenefamilyreunion2017@gmail.com. Also, if you are aware of any other family members that we have not reached,

please forward their information to us and we will make sure to get in contact with them. We really hope you can

make it and look forward to seeing everyone!

God Bless,

Greene Family Reunion Committee

Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths. ~Proverbs 3:5 - 3:6

RegistrationInformation 

The Family Reunion Committee understands that families need a flexible, convenient option that will allow them to make payments towards this year’s family reunion, instead of making a one lump sum payment. Therefore, we have made the cost to participate and enjoy all the festivities more affordable for families while giving you the ability to break up the payment into two parts in the form of a registration and attendance fee.

The Registration process is an important part in helping to make the reunion a success and we hope you will take advantage of all the options in being able to register and pay online or by mail. In order to meet our financial commitments, the Deadline for the Registration Fee is April 30, 2017 and is Non-Refundable.

Fundraising 

The Greene Family Reunion Committee is starting an account that will be used exclusively for Greene Family Reunion Committee activities and initiatives. A portion of the monies raised will help offset the cost associated with planning future reunions thereby reducing the out-of-pocket costs to our family members to attend.

Another goal of the Committee is to start a scholarship fund for one child every year, in which a portion of the monies raised, will go to establishing the scholarship fund. In order to meet the financial goals of the committee, we plan on having multiple fundraisers to reach our goals throughout the year. We will keep you updated on fundraising events through the reunion website and Facebook. Here are two that are already in the works.

Raffle:

We plan on having multiple Raffle’s which will be drawn at the Reunion. The details of the items to be raffled will be announced at the Friday Meet and Greet to be held on September 22, 2017 at our “Host” Hotel, GreenTree Inn & Suites.

Tickets are $7 each and the money will be collected when you check in at the Registration/Information Desk. The drawing for the Raffle will be at the Reunion Gala on Saturday, September 23, 2017 which will be held at GreenTree Inn & Suites.

Souvenir Book:

This year we will have a Keepsake Souvenir Reunion Book, (details are on the following page) which will have ad space available for purchase.

ThingstoDoinPhoenix 

Phoenix is a rapidly growing and attractions of all kinds can be found in Phoenix and the surrounding area. In your free time from the planned Reunion Activities, we encourage you to explore and enjoy what the Valley of the Sun has to offer.

We have listed some of our favorite things to do in Phoenix/Tempe below and if you have any questions, please do not hesitate to ask a Committee Member or any of our Planning Coordinators.

Food Spots There are numerous fast food and dine-in restaurants located near the “Host” hotel but the neighboring city Tempe has an abundance of foodie spots, but here are some that top the list in no particular order: The Chuck Box

202 E University Dr. Tempe, AZ 85281 (480) 968-4712 www.thechuckbox.com Parking can be a challenge but this place is worth the effort. They have a limited menu and specialize in Mesquite broiled Burgers and Chicken on the Grill made right in front of you when you order. Their Onion Rings are yummy but their French fries are not to be ignored. There is a Condiment Bar where you dress your own sandwich.

Haji-Baba

1513 E Apache Blvd Tempe, AZ 85281 (480) 894-1905 Middle Eastern, Mediterranean Food Don’t be put off with the location (inside a strip plaza) or lack of ambience. We recommend the Kabobs and Gyro. Dragon Flame Chinese Grill

1125 S Terrace Rd Tempe, AZ 85281 (602) 881-2284 dragonflame.us Chinese Food from the North China Recommendation: Anything that says BBQ Ok, this is a new “place” that opened up but the Yelp Reviews are great. This is not a traditional restaurant; it is a Food Truck that is parked near the ASU campus and in front of a small convenience/grocery store. There are tables in the store to sit at. (yes, we checked they have all the appropriate licensing with the County Health Dept.)
