King Family Reunion 2010 (9?) Picture Day

All - Dorothy has arranged for a Photographer for Monday Night! This photographer has taken pictures at Bear Creek Crossing before...

We are on for the photographer Monday night, at 6:30 at the clubhouse. I thought we should get the word out in case any one thinks for a minute that they are not going to be in the group photo!
We'll do the big one first and then any break out groups after. Everyone will be able to go on line and order from the website. No funds are needed for Monday night.
Here's a link http://www.contrastphoto.net

Thanks Dort!!
