Things You Need for a Fabulous Military Family Reunion

 

Spending a quality family time together is extremely important, especially if you don’t get to see each other very often. One of the drawbacks of living in the military family is that you are often separated from your beloved ones who are service-members and most of the times away from home due to deployment.

Organizing and planning for a family reunion in these circumstances can prove to be quite a challenge. However, if you are the one organizing the event you shouldn’t worry really for we are here to help you on your way to an unforgettable family reunion.

So, what is it you are going to need and to pay attention to in order for everyone to be satisfied with the event? Read on.

Find a Helping Hand

If we’re talking about organizing a dozen it shouldn’t pose much of a threat to your time and resources. However, if you’re lucky enough to have a big cohesive family and you’re about to invite all of them (talking about 50 of them for example) to a family gathering – then you’ll definitely need to recruit somebody else from within the family to help you organize everything.

If certain branches of the family have moved away and are living far off from where you live, you might want to get in touch with a ‘’representative’’ of a far-away family branch that will help you communicate with the rest of them and spread the word about the upcoming event.

This will be extremely helpful when it comes to scheduling a time and a place for an event, as well as planning on a budget required for everything to go smoothly. Depending on the budget and preferences of the rest of the family members, you might want to organize a fancy cruise for a weekend or you can settle for a more active event such as apres skiing in Park City.

Military-Themed Event

Military families are not like the other families, as we all already know. With that being said, times, when the military family members gather together, is distinct from the fact that there are numerous military traditions involved also.

For service members, taking a token from every event home is what makes them proud and makes it easy to remember wonderful time they spent with the others. Keeping that in mind, you might want to spice your family meeting a bit by creating custom challenge coins for every member of the family, and engraving date and the venue the family reunion took place.

Although challenge coins are not exclusive only to the military anymore as they are used and utilized widely in every other aspect of life, this can be considered as paying homage to the family military bonds. At the same time, it serves as a nice, tangible memory for everyone present at the meeting.
