Giesbrecht Reunion 2011

August long weekend

November, 2009

Well, I think I've finally found a way for us to share pictures, information, and discussion about the 2011 Reunion, long weekend in August. I'm guessing people are in favour of Winnipeg and area for the reunion. I am also exploring using the Mennonite Collegiate Institute for a day or two - dormatories and rooms are available for rent and it might be a one-stop weekend. And yes, the dormatories have been up-graded since Enid and I were students many moons ago.
Perhaps side trips before or after the weekend might be possible - either to Brandon (Brian and Lorne), The Pas (Valerie and our cottage), Edmonton (Enid, Marnie, Debbie), or other.
We could also include comments on each other's families, activities, travels, or other such important stuff.

During the visit of cousins Verna and Linda, a small gathering of cousins, spouses, and aunts decided to try to get the Giesbrecht clan together one more time.

Verna and Linda informed us of their visit a few months before they arrived in July of this year, 2009. They visited Aunt Helen in Gretna and Mom and I drove down from Winnipeg to see them. Juanita and I had invited the cousins to visit at our home and Randy and Biff invited everyone over to their newly renovated house at 832 Renfrew. Not everyone was free to get together so we thought we would give it one more try. Aunt Alvina emphasized that although she was eager to attend, it was our time (this generation) to do the planning
