Welcome: Welcome to the Van Marel family blog. With family all over our world, this should be a great way to connect and remember some of the great times that were had at the first two all-family reunions. Listed first are photos from the second reunion, which was held in Camarillo, California, on June 27 and 28, 2009. About 130 family members attended from several States, plus The Netherlands and Australia. The photos from the 2007 reunion in Orange City, Iowa, are listed toward the end of this blog. For those of you who were not able to attend, this may whet your appetite so that you will try to join us at our next reunion. At this point, we have not received a commitment for another group to host the next reunion. Please contact Carl Van Marel at 972-772-3991, if you would like to know more about what is involved. Enjoy the photos which will give you some indication about the fun that was held by all. Helpful Hints l. As you can see, this family blog is open to you at any time a
