Blacker Family Reunion

Grandpa Jim has been talking about a Blacker Family Reunion (a.k.a. fishing derby) for the past several months, and to date, nothing has been concretely scheduled on the calendar. I know that all of your families are busy with their own schedules, including your summer schedules, as you have family trips and reunions on the docket. We would like to plan a family camping trip this summer, but our schedule is much more flexible than some of the rest of you who have older children in sports, etc. So, to put a concrete date on the calendar for everyone's benefit, I have posted a poll survey in the upper-right hand corner that allows you to mark when you would prefer to have the reunion take place. Please take the time to sit down with your families and figure out which time would work out best for you, and if you mark the other, please indicate in the comments what weekends WOULD work for your family. Originally this shin-dig was mentioned as only a one-day deal, but Jason and I wanted to open up the option to those who wanted to have an overnighter. Stay tuned for more information and pictures...
