Bonjour Cousins,
Attached is our Winter 2022 edition of "Generations". As the winter begins to wind down and spring emerges, enjoy reading about our family and the Acadians.
Inside you will find the latest information on our upcoming Reunion for the Grand Réveil at Rayne, Louisiana on 8 October 2022. It will be a fun time for all as we emerge from the pandemic after two years. We have a very interesting speaker, some excellent Cajun food, a little Cajun music and lots of time to mingle and visit among the many displays. Read the information and, if you have an interest in attending, please email guidry...@gmail.com with the number of folks in your party. This is NOT a commitment - only a rough headcount so we know how much space and food we need.
When traveling this spring and summer, why not visit Pennsylvania and New Jersey and see some Acadian sites there. You can read all about them in this issue.
Being that this is Women's History Month in the U.S., we've included a very interesting article on three outstanding Acadian women - two of which have Guédry or Petitpas connections. I believe you'll find their stories outstanding.
Another remarkable young lady in the Guidry family has distinguished herself yet again. Ms. Olivia Guidry has been named to a distinguished position at the Louisiana State University Law School.
And don't forget to try one of the excellent recipes in Bon Appetit. I personally love the baked cushaw. Brings back fond memories of my grandma making it for us young boys. The two books in the Book Nook are excellent. Both are quick reads and memorable. And my favorite section is the old news stories in Historical Tidbits. Always something interesting in there about our family.
Good reading and enjoy the upcoming Spring,
Marty
