FAMILY REUNION: Jody's Important Update!

Howdy FAMILY!!!! There has been a slight change of plans. The Lutheran facility has fallen through (I can give details later), but I have something just as good!


St. Christopher's on John's Island is the place to be! The website is www.stchristopher.org. This facility is about 50 minutes from Charleston. Please go and check out all the pics of the facility because I need to know by Sunday evening how many are still in (please list kids and their ages - it makes a difference in price) so that I can reserve our spot Monday morning!

The following is all the info. you should need to make a decision:

DATES - July 19 - 22 (same dates as before)
June 18th - 21 (14 rooms available)
**Please include in your response if it matters which date we book.

LODGING
- Four adults (12 and older) = $79 a night
- Two adults and two kids (under 12) = $69 a night
* We are allowed to use sleeping bags in rooms for little ones FREE OF CHARGE. So, consider this when sending your list of who will be coming and include if a sleeping bag or two is okay. I figure we will not be in the rooms much anyway!


FOOD
There is a sep. dining hall for this staying in the lodge buildings, but we will be eating with others staying at the lodge.

We can rent a conference room for $50/day (they will cut us deal for booking many rooms once we book) that has a fridge, ice box, and ice. This is where we will eat cold cereal for breakfast, sandwiches for lunch, and keep snacks. The Ross Jensen's will be sure to keep things stocked by making grocery runs if needed. We will work out food cost later for breakfast and lunch. We will eat dinner in the cafeteria at 6:30 each night. It is served buffet style (eat as much as you like) and there is always, drinks, full salad bar, and dessert served with every meal. The cost is as follows:

Under 4= free
4-11 = $4 a day
12 - up = $15 day

ACTIVITIES

BEACH
Tennis
Basketball (as long as summer campers are not using it - she said it is usually available)
Beach Volleyball (Ross Jensen's will set this up, but it is okay)
Board Games
Nature Trails
Camp fire area (they provide wood)

I hope y'all are still excited about coming SOUTH! Please let me know all your info by SUNDAY EVENING so that I can take care of the reservation.

Love,
Jody
