Notice this year we will be 3 full days of festiveness'. We can show up at 2:00 pm on Thursday and clear out on Sunday by noon.

Here is how this will play out so listen up. We will have 3 group meals, Friday Night, Saturday morning, Saturday Night. I will put together a breakdown and be working on assignments for all families. We would like to get all families to participate so we can better unite around meal time. The theme is "los banditos" each family will be responsible for making bandanas for members of your family. Bandanas for ALL, you may choose your own personal style of how you wear it but it must be on your body for the entire reunion. You can make them out of old bed sheets if you like just make sure all your family is matching. For example, every person that is under Mike and Wilma will have matching gear. Saturday morning there will be a junior olympics for the kids with the awards ceremony as part of the program that night. All kids that can blink will be required to participate. There will be a horseshoe tournement as well. Program Saturday night after dinner. Be working on talents of all kinds to share with the group. I am excited about the spot that was picked for this years get together. For starters it is very affordable we are looking at $20 per family for all three days. There is no cost difference if you have a trailer or tent. We are billed for warm bodies only. If you plan to stay in hotel you can be to Malad in less than 15 min. Any extra money will go to the family fund to buy supplies for the following year. The campsite is located at the top of the malad pass about 2 miles off the highway up a canyon. We have a private area that is gated with no through traffic. It is wooded and there is a stream nearby to play in (water flow depends on snowpack). The road is well groomed so any vehicle can get in. We have restrooms and a drinking fountain. There is no electricity. Thois would be proud. There are trails to hike, ride wheelers, dirt bikes, horses, mt bikes, shoot game, etc. It will be a great area to hang out together in one spot and have fun. I will have more details to you in the coming months. If you have questions call me at 801.499.6510 or email binghamart@hotmail.com
