MAKE YOUR PLANS NOW!!! To attend the 8th OLD JAMES OLIVE FAMILY ASSOCIATION NATIONAL REUNION TO BE HELD IN NASHVILLE, TN. FRIDAY, JUNE 30TH - SUNDAY, JULY 2, 2006

Quick opening note: in the last newsletter, our editor mentioned Nashville's Opryland Theme Park. Unfortunately, a few years ago Opryland Theme Park was replaced by Opry Mills Outlet Mall. We don't want anyone to come to the Reunion expecting to ride the roller coaster! There are many other attractions to take the theme park's place.

All listed costs are subject to increase or decrease based upon the number of participants in each activity. Our request for early indications of your interest is to allow us to make specific reservations that meet your desires and to recalculate final costs. We will be sending you a later communication with the final casts and details.
