42nd   Blanding Family Reunion

Savannah, GA

 

“Blanding Style - A Legacy in Motion”

Friday, July 4th - Sunday, July 6th

 

Hello Cousins,

 

Welcome to our 42nd Blanding Family Reunion!  First, thank you so much for your patience as we pivoted from our original plan of hosting the reunion in Los Angeles, California to our new picturesque destination of Savannah, Georgia.  Although it was in our heart to host our reunion in Los Angeles unfortunately the timing wasn’t the best.  Let’s keep our family and friends in prayer as they forge through the fires that have destroyed communities.  

 

We are extremely excited about the opportunity to get together and celebrate our family love, legacy and commitment to family.  The Family will travel to Savannah, Georgia for an incredible weekend beginning Friday, July 4th until Sunday, July 6th.   Our host hotel is the celebrated Embassy Suites located at 605 W. Oglethorpe Avenue, Savannah, Georgia 31401, in the historic district.  Our room rate is $239 per night for a King or Double bed.  You may use the attached link to book your room or contact the hotel directly at (912) 721-6900 and reference the Blanding Family room block.  The room rate is available from July 3rd through July 7th for family members that may come in early or stay a little later.  Your room must be secured by June 12th to take advantage of the discounted rate.
