The reunion dues will cover overhead expenses and food for the Meet & Greet on Friday.
In addition to the $50.00 reunion dues per household, the cost for each family member to participate is $65.00 (13 years or older). Ages 12 & under is free. The $65.00 per person will cover the cost of the banquet on Saturday evening. As we know, each individual that attends the banquet pays the same price regardless of their age. Since we are not charging for ages 12 & under, each family member age 13 & older will carry the cost for the younger ones. Our banquet will be held at the Charleston Plaza Hotel.
There will be 3 installment payments for the per member cost. The months are March 15, 2015, May 15, 2015 and last installment being July 1st, 2015. We are giving you these options to help you in your financial planning. It is important that you meet these deadlines.

You will be responsible for reserving your own rooms. Please don't forget to mention that you are with the McFadden/Whaley Family Reunion. Once the deadline is reached, if you need a hotel after the deadline has past, these rates are not guaranteed. Please check the website for detailed information regarding the hotel reservations.
