July 13, 2009 Update

Update 4 (6/22/09): Let Karen know (karenmlittle@earthlink.net) if you did not receive the update. It was attached along with the family list with an email.

One correction to the Update 4 is: please delete the paragraph about the Family Loom. We have plenty we are doing, so we can do without this. Karen

Family DVD: Thanks to all for sending great "old" pictures to Jim and Tomi. It's looking great. There will be copies for everyone.

Family Notebook Updates: On the backside of your family page, please write a three-five paragraph narrative about your extended family, ie, the people you married -- Jerry, Margo, Judy, Terri, Roberta, Bev, Stephen, Elena, Janet, Trinh, Joann, etc. etc. For example, on the back of my family's update (Jim Karen Brendan Jamie) I will include a brief narrative about Jim Little's family, the Little/Michon Family. Bring 25 copies to the Reunion.

Adding Attendees! Cancellation rules are strict -- July 24 is the date, but adding people, or rooms is easy. Contact Sleeping Lady directly at 1-800-574-2123 and give them "Yoshioka Reunion No. 5513, then give them your credit card number. They will need to know firm numbers for meals.

If you wish to add people for individual meals, Karen has prices -- spendy, but worth it if some college student who will not be named -- is coming through on his or her way to Pullman...

Golf: Two foursomes have registered with Mike Leonard (kmleonard@comcast.net) and so, if you need to join, please let him know asap. Be sure to let Mike or Dave know if you have prizes to donate. Let Mike know if you want a cart.

T Shirts, three words, family names: Email your T shirt sizes to Tom and Roberta (ryoshioka@yahoo.com). Also, send them three words that relate to your family, and the family names associated with your family.

Miscellaneous stuff: Bring Washington, or Yoshioka themed prizes for game night. We will put them in a basket and give them out until they are gone! If you have particular prizes for the younger kids, please indicate that.

I will send you a tentative schedule by email because I don't know how to attach documents to the blog site. You will be asked to volunteer for stuff, since no one has responded to my last plea.

Karen
