You Need Them to Show Up for a Successful Reunion Reunions. Whether it is a family reunion, a high school or college reunion, or for a military unit or any other type of reunion, one of the most important facets of the organization process is to ensure that everyone who is invited remembers the date. You can spend days and weeks preparing a wonderful occasion, but if half the people fail to show up it can be a big flop.
Easy, But Unreliable
The conventional methods of notification are OK, but they are unreliable. Letters get lost in piles of mail on the kitchen counter. Phone calls are quickly forgotten. E-mail messages get erased or filed away on your D drive…never to be seen again. If you want the date to be remembered you need something that will be seen regularly and last a long time.
Easy, and Very Effective!
The ideal solution is a simple refrigerator magnet. They are inexpensive, easy to work with, and readily available. You (or someone on the reunion committee) can quickly stick one in an envelope and mail them to each person on the list. Most people open their mail at home, usually in the kitchen. When they receive their refrigerator magnet that displays the pertinent information about the upcoming event, they can immediately place it on the fridge where they will see it daily. The perfect place for a perfect reminder!
Design It the Way You Want
Imagine an old photo from your class digitally printed on a quality magnetic product. Who wouldn't enjoy seeing that? Or find a wedding picture of the grandparents or great grandparents who are responsible for the entire family that will attend the reunion. Depending on the picture you choose you could have them laughing, or deep in thought when they see it. Either way, a refrigerator magnet is an outstanding reminder that could end up being a valued keepsake.
