[quote=Anonymous]I know Grandma wants a beach but that could be something to give up.  We did a large family reunion last year and looked at the beach, an inland resort or state park type of place, and a city.  Large family ranging in age from 4mos to a 75yr old who is fairly immobile due to MS.

We ended up as a group voting on the mid-sized city where the organizers lived. Most people ended up staying in one host hotel with free breakfasts so we gathered every morning.  We all chipped in to pay for a suite that became the party-room to hang out during down times.  The organizers came up with a rough itinerary with one official thing to do per day as a family - a catered dinner, a baseball game and a pool party with BBQ.  Otherwise they had a huge list of things to do around town and then families could do various things together based on their and their kids' interests.  For example, a bunch of us went to the local aquarium with a lot of the younger kids.  A group of uncles went golfing.  Most of the older generation who were less mobile actually spent most of their time in the party suite chatting.  Sometimes the babies were put down for naps in the suite's bedrooms and the parents could sneak out to workout or have lunch together.

It was Thurs-Sun so at most people were taking two days off of work.[/quote]
