What a DAY!!

Costello Reunion - 2014

What a WONDERFUL day we had at "The Barn" in Mount Vernon, Ohio today...the place where it all began! 35 years ago we had a Costello Family Reunion and this year, to mark 60 years in Ohio we all gathered again! Over 100 "Costello's" joined in the festivities today and we captured it all with this beautiful group picture! Fun was had by all! Let's do it again...only let's not wait 35 years this time! Thanks to all who came to make it a great day!

We had a really productive, exciting day yesterday.   Anne met with us and we went over the final things for the reunion, checking off a lot on our list.  We had placed the order for 106 
t-shirts and we were able to pick them up yesterday.  All three of us were so happy with how they turned out.  Rose will have them all washed and ready for you.  We will begin handing them out at the Pizza Party Friday evening at.   Makes it seem like it really is going to happen! 

Just a reminder that the pool will be open if anyone would like to swim.  It is an actual water park now with tube slides, kiddie area, and an Olympic-sized pool  Here's their info:

Individual (Ages 6-59) ............... $5.00 
Children (Ages 1-5) ................... $3.00 
Senior Citizen (Age 60+) .......... $4.00 
Children (Under age of one) ..... FREE 

These are the rates after 5 p.m. with closing at 7:45 p.m.  (remember those staying at the Comfort Inn, you have a pool and hot tub there for your use as well)

We then took a ride to THE BARN so Anne could see it and we could get another feel for what we might need.  Anne was quite impressed with the look/feel of the place.  Much more than she had imagined!  It is going to be a wonderful place for all of us to gather for the day. If you haven't had a chance yet, click on this link and at the bottom left of their home page is a video showing you what THE BARN has to offer.

Don't forget to get in touch with Sam about the golf scramble on Saturday morning.  I know some have signed up, but e-mail him if you are interested, he has all the info.  Thanks again, Sam, for taking care of that.
