Meeting of the Executive Committee

Last night the Warren Family Reunion Executive Committee met to finalize plans for the 2009 Reunion. Present were Reunion Czarina; Victoria Graves, President of the Reunion Committee; Jessica Catalano and myself, Joseph Warren-CEO. All reunion plans were finalized and approved. The meeting was then moved to Arnie Beller's private club at the 2009 American-Polish festival for the purpose of experiencing our cultural heritage. A motion to introduce alcoholic beverages to the meeting was approved overwhelmingly. After a fervent open meeting with various junior members of the committee, Mrs. Graves and myself issued a joint resolution to recognize our hard work over the years and presented ourselves with congratulatory cherry bombs. We also recognized the origin of our mission being the time Grandma Warren pulled us aside to tell us we were her favorites and that she counted on us to keep the tradition of Warren family gatherings alive. Another Cherry Bomb round was introduced in a toast to Helen Warren and what she may have said to us. The rest of the minutes of the meeting are missing because someone spilled beer on them and rather than try to clean up the mess we just ordered another pitcher and headed for the dance floor. The meeting was adjourned...although we are not quite sure when that was.
Did I mention that Judy acquired a park permit that allows beer and wine consumption at the picnic? Any thing else that might turn up in your Thermos is your business. Two weeks until the reunion! Make sure your whole family knows about it.
