Meeting info

[David Earls]

Greetings all,

Looking forward to seeing you all this coming weekend!

We have people arriving Wednesday, Thursday and Friday. Our first scheduled gathering is Friday evening. We'll be eating at State and Lake, the restaurant at theWit hotel. We don't have a private room for that, but they're going to be putting tables together for us. Cocktails will be available at 6:30, dinner is at 7. You'll have your choice of four entrees from the restaurant menu, and yes, one of them is vegetarian.

We'll meet on Saturday morning. Breakfast will be available before the meeting, and the meeting will start at 9. There will be a 4th generation meeting at noon (more about that in the Foundation meeting), and lunch will be at 12:30. I think Natalie is putting together greetings packages for us, so you can get more details from that.

I'm attaching an agenda for the meeting. As you can see, it's very full, so we'll need to keep things moving. We have numerous things to discuss as a family, as well as brief presentations about our founder, the second-generation trustees, and the two deceased members of the family in whose honor the Special Gifts are being made this year.

Please feel free to direct questions to me. Natalie Barraclough has done an exceptional job of arranging all this, so if she's able to make it to lunch on Saturday, I hope you will thank her for all she's done.
