Changes - Changes - Changes

There are wonderful changes at work with the H.B. & Alice Krout Family Reunion. Beginning in 2012 families will take turns hosting the reunion each year. Lois Richardson volunteered to have her family host it in 2012. Therefore, Willis Krout's family will host it in 2013, Harold Krout's family will host it in 2014, and Dale Krout's family will host it in 2015.

We have set a new date for the reunion in hopes of enjoying cooler weather. From now on, THE REUNION WILL BE HELD ON THE 2ND SUNDAY OF JUNE. Keeping this consistent will allow everyone to mark their calendars and keep that weekend free.

It is our hope that having the different families take turn hosting the reunion will get more people involved and produce new and exciting ways to have the reunion. The host will decide where the reunion will be, what the activities will be, and what food we will have. Watch your mailbox the end of May to see where to meet and other details. But remember, it will always be the 2nd Sunday of June.

Dianna and Annetta have been hosting the reunion for 19 years, and Tonya joined in to help them shorty after the reunions began. It has been a joy for them to host it but they felt it was time to get others involved in a bigger way. They look forward to seeing what fresh ideas come from this change.

From Dianna, Tonya, and Annetta - - - - Thank you to everyone who helped over the years and for all those who bring yummy dishes and bring their smiling faces and family to visit each year. It was Grandma Krout's wish that this reunion keep our family close and our relationships strong. Let's all work together to keep her dream alive! We love you all!
