I'm planning a get-together for the Kyrgyz adoptive families on July 12 from 4-midnight at Bonclarken in Flat Rock NC. Anyone interested in coming please email me (the link is on the left, under the stick horse) and I'll give you details. I've rented a community building that adjoins a playground so there's a place for the kids to play as well as an air conditioned meeting area for the families. I'm also working on some kind of snack/light supper, so ideas are appreciated. Also if anyone needs lodging, Bonclarken has a nice new lodging complex. The rooms have 2 Queen beds for a very reasonable fee (less than $75/night). If interested please contact Holly at Bonclarken and mention you are with the Kyrgyz group (or mention that you're with Shea's group).
I hope many of you can make it!!
That's so wonderful! We're in the beginning of our journey to Kyrgyzstan. I
hope your get-together goes well and becomes an annual event. We're in
Virginia so maybe if you do it again we'll join you next year. Have fun!
I think it's great that you are putting together a little something extra.
I will be at the picnic with my family, but we were actually planning on
heading back to FL right after. We are stopping by the picnic on the tail
end of a two week road trip. I am sorry we will miss your gathering- hope
you have fun, and looking forward to meeting you at the picnic.
That's ok Jamie... a bunch of us kept talking about putting something
together and the opportunity at Bonclarken just happened to work out. It's
a little late notice!

I don't think we can come either:( We are driving to Knoxville right after the picnic and I know the boys will be exhausted. But you better believe we are totally going to barge in on your family someday when you least expect it! Jerret's family lives in Columbia, SC, so we have plenty of reason to come down.
