WINSTON-SALEM, N.C., May 16, 2017 /PRNewswire/ Half of all family reunions take place in the summer when children are out of school; weather conditions are less restrictive; and people are more willing to travel to meet up with cousins, uncles, aunts and assorted other relatives they may see infrequently, if at all, according to the travel booking website GroupTravel.org.

Event planner Lynn Fuhler is a big fan of family reunions. If they are done right, they can bridge the geographical and emotional distance found in today's mobile society between those who share the same family heritage. What is more, she suggests that thanks to online surveys and online invitations pulling off a well-received family reunion is now easier than ever.

As the author of the new book Secrets to Successful Events: How to Organize, Promote and Manage Exceptional Events andFestivals, Fuhler can talk about:

  • Planning: how far in advance to begin and what to keep in mind.
  • Enlisting others to carry out the necessary tasks.
  • Finding the perfect location.
  • Protecting the family's privacy if you promote your reunion online.
  • Picking activities that appeal to all generations.
  • Selecting food and beverages for lacto ovo vegans and other family members with special dietary needs.
