An ideal reunion site is one where everyone can be comfortable and enjoy a variety of activities. Before you start researching, assess your family's size, interests and budget, as well as the needs of elderly relatives and young children. Will your reunion be just one day, a weekend or a full week? How far will guests have to travel to get there? How much will it cost? Remember that many facilities offer group discounts; travel agents and hotel managers may be able to help you arrange a package deal. Here are a few ideas to get you started.
