Countdown to 2006 Carpenter-Zimmerman Union

Hello, Carpenter Descendants,

As of this moment, we have 59 registrations for the Reunion that will begin in 33 days.

Important! If you plan to come to the Reunion and stay at the Hampton Inn, those special rates will expire on May 15--in two days.

If you have had any problems with the registration, there were new people on the desk last week who did not have the entire picture. That has been all straightened out now.

I spoke with Allan Leach last week and he is ready for the Carpenters to come to Hustonville. We will have maps of the area and for the tours for each of you this time. It is still not definite that we will have two tours since there are fewer of us than anticipated when we did initial planning. Please email or call if you have any questions.

I guess you are getting tired of this old song--but we have had very little response from any of you with family stories, recipes, history, etc.. Remember, if you want to hear Carpenter stories from other folks, you might want to think about sharing one or two of your stories.

Do you like to sing, play an instrument, or have another talent. There will be opportunities for this at the Shelter at Old Ft. Harrod State Park on Saturday. If you have folding chairs, think about bringing a couple along if you are going to be driving. Those benches at the Park can get pretty hard.

Sunday's picnic after church will be at the Picnic Shelter in Hustonville. Some of the church people will be sharing potluck with us.

I am getting excited about the Reunion. It is going to be so good to see all of you.

Kathleen Carpenter Griffin
