Childcare?

Hey Everyone!

So I've had some questions so I thought I'd post something here with an email to follow up later.

Yes, kids are welcome. No, there will not be childcare provided for the event.

However, if you would be interested in childcare during the open mic/sharing time, Anna Haugen has offered to arrange for that to happen. If this is something you would be interested in, please RSVP to Anna with names and ages of the kids so she knows how much help might be needed. She will get back to you with any further details.

Hope you all are clearning your schedules for the October 4th. So far we have 30 adults coming with many more of you checking schedules. Can't wait to see everyone there!

Where are they now: Ben Brandt

In an attempt to connect those who won't be able to make it to the reunion for some reason, I'm asking them to email me with a photo and short blurb as to what they are up to now. Because this can be seen by more than IVCF'ers, I'll refrain from posting the contact information but know that it will be at the reunion. If you want it before then, or can't make it there yourself, please email me and let me know at saraheutinck@gmail.com.



So, with that said, here's your first installment!

Mr. Ben Brandt in his own words!

Ben, his darling wife Mary, and their rascally cat Smokey are living out in New Jersey these days, where Ben works at the Office of Homeland Security and Mary works for the College of New Jersey. They'd love to hear from old IVCF compadres if you get the chance!! :)

My disclaimer is that I pulled Ben and Mary's photo off of Facebook so I hope it's one of his more well liked ones.

So now that you all see that it isn't all that hard, I expect to be receiving more updates very soon!
