Sunday, May 25th:

DOORS OPEN: 9:00 A.M. — Wells Family Members will set up for the reunion.

REGISTRATION: Please be sure to register when arriving at the reunion, letting us know how many family members are attending with you and to pick up your name tags and door prize tickets. We also need to know if you have had a change in mailing address or email address.

You will not need to fill out registration forms when you arrive–just let us know you registered online (scan the QR code above or click on the link below it), let us know who is attending with you, and pick up your name tags and door prize ticket. 

MASKS & HAND SANITIZER WILL BE AVAILABLE.

RECEPTION:
Socialize with cousins and reminisce about old times. Get to know your Wells cousins!! Activities and games for the children will be available in both the meeting area and the gymnasium. If you have games or activities which you think the youngsters will enjoy, please feel free to bring those. For the children under age 12, we will have the dollar drop for them to scramble for and which they can use to buy items from the Chinese auction.

WELCOME:
President Susie Music Colburn

AUCTION:
Bring items for the main auction and the silent auction, such as family history items, handmade items, such as crafts, etc. The proceeds from the auction sales will benefit the organization for reunion and newsletter expenses. Be sure to set a minimum price for the auctioneer to begin with. We don’t want to sell items for less than what was invested in them, especially for handmade items.

SNACK TABLE/DINNER:
Dinner will be served following the auction. Snacks will be provided for those who may have health problems or have had to travel some distance to the reunion and need to have a little sustenance until dinner is served.

MEMORIAL SERVICES:
Remembering family members we have lost since the last reunion.

BLESSING:
Dinner prayer.

DINNER:
Please bring your favorite “potluck” dishes, plus a little extra to share with others. The Association will provide drinks, paper products, eating utensils and ice.

NOTE:  There will be a greeter to assist in helping carry your food to the kitchen.

ENTERTAINMENT: We will not have a genealogy presentation this year, so we’d like to invite some of our talented singers/musicians in the Wells Family to perform for us before we conduct our association business.

ELECTION:
New officers will be elected.

WELLS SCHOLARSHIP:
Dr. Randall Wells will award the $500.00 scholarship check to the 2025 recipient.

AWARDS & DOOR PRIZES:
Youngest, oldest, traveled the farthest, largest family, etc.

DOORS CLOSE
: 5:00 P.M. We encourage everyone to stay around to visit with your extended family and friends following the activities as it may be your last opportunity to attend a reunion.

OUR PRESIDENT MAY SEE THE NEED TO ADJUST THE SCHEDULE.
