2009 Reunion Info
Where: Heber Valley YW Camp (Utah)
Who: Everyone!
Here is Uncle Steve's message:
Hi Family,
Here is the information for next year’s family reunion, to be held Aug. 20-22 (Thursday—Saturday) at the Heber Valley YW Camp. We decided to go with this because, for most of us, it is close, available and cheap, and almost brand-new. We hope to have the kind of turnout that we had at Island Park a few years ago, when the entire family showed up, and a good time was had by all.
The Heber Valley Camp is owned and operated by the Church, and is dedicated primarily to reservations of Young Women groups from around the area. Because of this, available reservations for private groups are extremely limited. I know that the late August date may have interference with the start of the school year, but no other times were available, so I hope that you can find a way to work around any scheduling conflicts.
The campground consists of seven camps, and we are reserved at the Bertha Stone Reeder camp, campsite #5, which is the farthest camp from the entrance to the campground. It consists of four cabins which sleep 16 apiece, and we also have reserved the main pavilion, which sleeps an additional 16—total of 80. To cover the cost of the reservation, I need to collect $10 for each bed you need. This will cover both nights. Once I have collected enough to cover the reservation, any additional funds will go towards food purchases. Food and cooking assignments will be made at a later date, when we have a better idea of who is coming. Everyone will need to bring their own bedding, including some kind of mattress, unless you don’t mind sleeping on a wooden surface.
The camp is at a high elevation and has a number of hiking trails around it. There is a beach volleyball court right next to it, and a small lake nearby with canoes for rent for $1/hour. There is a possibility that the lake will not have sufficient water in it for canoeing, due to the time of year; we’ll just have to wait and see. It is not open on Sunday, which means we need to check out on Saturday before 5:00pm.
The campground is about 60 miles from Salt Lake City, and is fairly easy to find. Directions and photographs can be found at the website: www.hebervalleycamp.org I suggest you download and print the directions and map before starting out.
Please get your confirmations and checks to me when possible, so I can start making sleeping assignments. We hope everyone in the family can make it so we can have a great time together with our increasingly large family.

5 Things You'll Never Hear Me Say
1) No thanks, I've had enough sweets for today
2) It's ok honey, I don't need a back massage today
3) Another messy diaper that leaked through the diaper, shorts, and runs from your toes to your ears... YIPEE!
4) I am so glad Winter is coming! There's nothing like scary driving, shorter days and taking twice as long to get out the door.
5) Wow! Everyone in the family is using the Baldridge Blog! :) (j/k, I would actually love to say this one day)

Greetings from Marc Davis family
We are doing well. Our latest hobby is planting our garden (only 12' by 12' so it fills up fast) and planting perrenials and annuals.
Here's an idea...let's send Steve (or Debbie as Steve might insist, or any of their kids... or pets or even neighbors?!) on to the game show Jeopardy. He (or she) will win and then they can take us all on a luxury all espense trip somewhere nice. That's be great! What do ya think?
We miss everyone and hope to see you soon.
