Budget
As the host of this reunion, I have a very small budget. I reserved the shelter for $150. I am providing paper plates, cups, utensils. I'm asking families who live in Ohio to please bring large shareable portions of food to the event, as this will help me with my food budget for the event. The shelter has functioning electric outlets, which will allow for a couple of crock pots.
I am also putting some items up for auction and raffle to serve as a FUNdraiser to assist with the budget for this event as well as my general ancestry expenditures. I am by no means getting rich by selling some of these items; I assure you, these are items of love, and this ancestry work is a passionate but expensive hobby of mine. I have monthly expenses strictly for ancestry related items of at least $60 per month. These monthly expenses include a file server hosting the ancestry photos and videos which you all have been enjoying. This file server is expensive, but, it's very nice, as it allows me to easily share and organize high resolution items with you all, and you are able to download them and use them however you like. I also have purchased many rare antique books which contain precious information about our heritage. I say all this just so you know that by bidding on and/or purchasing these items for sale, that you are not lining my pockets with cash.
I really think you're going to like this first item up for auction. Check it out on ebay here: Hook Photo Collage
