The Miklo Family Reunion is only two months away. If you haven’t already, mark your calendar and make plans to attend. If you plan to attend please click on "Events" in the upper right and click on "Join". We will need a head count next month for purposes of planning the amount of food and beverages.
We have the north shelter and two small stone cabins reserved in Dolliver State Park. We will have an indoor back-up location in case of severe weather.
The reunion will get underway at 10:30 in the morning for set-up with a picnic lunch about 12:30. So far the menu includes:
Pulled Pork
Portabello Mushrooms (for the very few Miklos who are vegetarian)
Baked Beans
Potato Salad (Does anyone have Betty’s recipe? Please post here if you do so that we can solicit volunteers to make enough to serve 50 or so people)
Watermelon
Kolache and Nut Rolls (there will be a competition with prizes for the best Kolache and the best Nut Rolls)
Birthday Cake
There will be live music from about 2:00 to 4:00.
For those who need lodging we have reserved a block of rooms at the American Inn located at the intersection of Highways 20 and 169 about 10 miles northwest of Dolliver State Park. The rooms have two queen beds and have a discount rate of $115 per night. To reserve a room call 800-634-3444 and let them know that you are attending the Miklo Family Reunion. Reservations must be made by June 12.
For those who want a more rugged experience and a thriftier night's stay we have two cabins reserved in Dolliver State Park for Friday and Saturday night. Each cabin sleeps six people - in bunk beds. The cost is $35 per night for the entire cabin. Email Bob at robertmiklo@mchsi.com if you would like to stay in one of the cabins. And for the real campers consider reserving your own camping space in the park at: http://www.iowadnr.gov/Destinations/StateParksRecAreas/IowasStateParks/ParkDetails.aspx?ParkID=610107
