Reunion planning checklist
The South is full of traditions and celebrations, so it makes sense to plan your reunion in the heart of the South. Use this reunion planning checklist containing key steps to make planning your reunion a success.

Form a committee with someone in charge of each major aspect of the reunion?location, social events, budget, mailings, record-keeping, etc. - Develop a Budget
Doing this early will determine the scale of food, decorations, accommodations and activities for your reunion. - Select the Date(s)
Choose your final date(s) based on what’s best for the majority of attendees. - Reserve a Reunion Site
When you begin planning, contact Atlanta Convention & Visitors Bureau to benefit from our complimentary services to help you find hotels, resorts, parks, site tours – you name it, we can help you submit your Request for Proposal. - Save the Date
Sending a ” Save the Date” will help you gauge interest and preferences for planning the reunion. - Invite the Guests
