Last minute details

Hi Family,

The verbal responses to this family reunion has been outstanding. However, we haven't received everyone's registration forms yet. I understand that it has been a holiday weekend and I expect mail through out the coming week. So if you have procrastinated on getting your reservation in the mail, please take this gentle reminder to heart.

Peggy needs to have all the directory orders in soon, so if you are interested in a spectacular family directory, please get your order into her as soon as possible. Like wise, if you want a Nicola Family Genealogy scroll, please contact Diane as soon as possible. Judy Jutzy is working on the t-shirt order. You won't want to miss having your family identified with this year's Nicola t-shirt. Here is contact information for each one:

Some of you have asked about the cost of the dorm rooms. They are at no charge to us, as is the rest of the campus. The cost for registration is simply the food expense. You may have additional expenses depending if you decide to golf or purchase Mary Kay products, etc.

Things to Bring:
Bedding, bath towels, comfortable clothes and walking shoes, light jacket (the evenings can cool down), Nicola artifacts for the museum, old family photos on CD or just bring them and we'll scan them at Rio, your memories and lots of space in your heart to embrace "new" family members.

Donations: We will collect a donation to give to Rio Lindo Academy for generously allowing us to use their campus for the weekend. Included in this donation will be payment for one of the Rio staff who will assist in the kitchen.

If you haven't read the blog before, you will find many interesting details about the Nicola Family Reunion as you scroll down. You will want to know about the picnic, talent show, Nicola Trivia Game, and more. I'll be posting a detailed schedule for the weekend as soon as all the reservation forms are in and we know exactly which events will be offered.

For now, may we each be blessed with grace and joy as we anticipate gathering together to honor such a wonderful family! Steve & Karen Nicola

Registration Forms on the way

Hi Everyone,

By this time tomorrow, (May 4, 2009) you will probably have received an e-mail from me with the Nicola Family Reunion Registration Form. I can't believe it is less than 2 months until we will all be together, celebrating our family. If you don't get the e-mail by Monday, May 4, please call me at 530-257-7627 or e-mail me at karen.nicola@gmail.com. I'll be happy to send the information to you. If you get the e-mail and know of someone who isn't on the address list, please feel free to forward it to them. Thanks for your help in this area. We decided to use electronic mail to save on both time and postage, but we want to make sure everyone who needs to know about the reunion gets the info.

Registration Deadline: June 4. In order to make sure all t-shirts, family directories, and meal planning is adequate, please get your reservation information to us by June 4. Remember, the accommodations are free---all we need to cover is the cost of meals.

Hi Everyone,
I know it has been a while since I up dated the Family Reunion information. I am writing to let you know that I am just about ready to post registration information and weekend scheduling. I am waiting to hear back from a few key family members before posting this pertinent information. Thank you for your patience. I want to thank many of you for volunteering to help in a variety of ways. When everyone does their part, it will make our reunion unforgettable! I am still looking for a life guard among the family, so if you know of anyone who will have a life guard license please notify me so we can use the pool. Until next time, Karen

Great news! Someone has come forwarded and offered to take care of the $1000 cleaning deposit for the reunion. Thank You! Thank you! Thank you!

Here is your assignment for the week: Please forward this blog address to all your children/grandchildren with e-mail addresses. We really want our youngest cousins to get in on the excitement of the planning.

Here are our e-mail address to contact us directly: karen.nicola@gmail.com or stevenicola@hotmail.com

And please remember to be in touch with Peggy (pnicola@aol.com) so she can continue her work with the directory.

Keep watching for more up dates later . . . . . You are all so special and our family reunion is a gift we give to each generation!

The Nicola Family Scroll

The Nicola Family Scroll


close up view



a portion of the scroll

These are pictures of the Nicola Family Scroll. It is 13 feet long, starting in 1717 and continues to 1988. I would like to update it to the current year. You can help by sending me any family additions since 1988 and I will be glad to print them as much as possible onto the scroll.

Include marriages, children, and grandchildren with the year of their births and deaths. Send as soon as possible, and no later then May 31st. This can be sent in by e-mail to Diane.

None will be added after that date, for the chart will be going to press. If you would like a copy, send your request along with $15.00 for each copy by May 31st to Diane.

Please include your phone number and e-mail address in case I have any questions. Your copy of the scroll will be ready at the reunion in Healdsburg. If you have any questions, please give me a call. If you can’t attend the reunion and would like a copy of this scroll, it can be arranged. Shipping and handling costs will need to be added. I will look into the charges and have them available when I hear from you.

Thank you, Diane Nicola-Voorhoeve
