Saliba Family Reunion 2015
It was great all being together in Crystal River this year and now we can look forward to next year! As you know, if you attended this year’s Family Meeting, next year we are going back to the Planation Resort on Crystal River. Thank you Dot-Dot for reminding us of our heritage and family strength!
The Family decided on the dates of July 7th- 12th but the Planation will give us our reduced rates from July 5th – 15th if you want to come a little early or even stay later.
Major Rooms Consideration: Just
like this year, we will be there during the very popular “Scalloping
Season” so you will need to make your room reservations as quickly as
possible to be sure you will get a room and the type room you want as
well as if you want to be near your family. The hotel has
blocked out 40 rooms for us (we used 32 this year) but they are on a
first come, first serve basis and we are competing with the outside
world for the best rooms. Some of us waited too long this year and as
result did not get to be closer to the action or had to stay at another
hotel. Let’s try to all be together next year!
