Registration Form
This is the page detailing all the fees and will determine your total costs. Thereis the regular family fee of $100, but this year there is also an option for Extended Family/Prospective Parents. This additional option is for up to 2 adults to attend the reunion.When deciding on the cost of your meal please take into account not only your child’s agebut how they eat. If an adult portion is more appropriate please pay the higher price. It will helpmake sure there is enough food for everyone. If you have a smaller child that does not eat a lot,and you feel they will eat a portion of your adult meal, then you may opt not to pay for an entirechild portion (either make a note of the child’s age and make an appropriate donation or pay foronly the adult meals). Each child will count as half an adult when finalizing the catering order forthe Thai lunch, and the fees will include drinks and other supplies needed for the picnic.
The Sunday breakfast meeting will be held at the hotel and all food is ordered throughtheir catering department. Prices are fixed.The t-shirt design is the logo appearing on the PDF file. (Working on putting the logo on this page). The shirt will be greywith the design printed on the back. On the front, there will be small pocket printing (words only).
