We had 52 descendants (+spouses) from my father. Not everyone knew each other, so we put together a "Match the Mettler" booklet. Each person submitted to me one thing about her/him that no one else knew. We gave prizes to folks who matched the person to the item. Broke the ice, as everyone had to talk to each other. Had it at Starlight Lodge ... Read Morenear PA - NY border - great lake, water slide, canoes, sail boats - lots for the kids to do. We had two family story telling nights - wonderful fun but we did NOT record them - terrible mistake! Also had a scavenger hunt, a puppet shoe and made smores over a campfire. We had the family genealogy posted on the wall. It was in 1997, and we have lots of big dates in years ending in 7. We had a 50th and a10th wedding anniversey and made big yin/yang mioons for those. Plenty of birthdays - 80, 70, 60, 50, two 40s and two 10s - they got big stars. The stars and the moon hung from the ceiling. We gave everyone who came a lovely picture book.
