Hi Family
As you probably know by now the brownfamilyreunion.org web site sent out a large
number of e-mails overnight. I sincerely apologize for this mistake. I uploaded
a new family tree program overnight and the site automatically sent out an
update for every person upload. The automatic updates have been deactivated and
you should not receive any more updates. If it makes you feel any better I got the same e-mail one two personal accounts.
Thanks

Greetings Family,

As you all know the 2011 Family Reunion will be held in beautiful Toledo, Ohio. The dates are Friday, July 1st  through Monday, July 4th.

Due to the economic downturn we are planning to have as much fun for as little money as possible.

We want as many people to attend as possible, so we are asking each group of families to get creative and make sure they have as much participation as possible.

By creative we mean, garage sales, bake sales, raffles, etc. to help family members that might not be able to attend otherwise. However, we will not sacrifice tradition.

If you didn’t make it to this years’ reunion in California you missed a great time. I have posted over a hundred pictures documenting our activities for your enjoyment. If you have any pictures you would like to add like the meet and greet night in particular. Please send pictures to me at brownfamilyreunion.org@gmail.com or  mrjamesconner@gmail.com . Soon I will be posting some video clips from the reunion as soon as I finish sifting through five days of video. I have also put together a family tree that I will post soon. I’m trying to fill in a few gaps in the information I have. So expect to hear from me soon with family history questions. Any help with this project would be greatly appreciated.

I would like to send a special thanks to Otis Brown, Betty Douglas and all those who played a part in planning a great reunion. To all those who selected a pen pal, lets follow through on a great and important idea. I hope to see all of you in Ohio (2011).

Dear Family,
