Here is the info several are looking for. I'm not a spokesman for the committee, just received this in the mail and wish to share with other Bertrand genealogists. Contact persons listed, not me.
FROM: LES BERTRAND MONDIAL FEBRUARY 10, 1999
TO: BERTRANDS [BERTRAN, BERTRANT, ETC.] AND RELATIVES
:-) AS MOST OF YOU KNOW BY NOW, THE BERTRANDS HAVE ORGANIZED FOR THE CONGRES’
MONDIAL REUNION TO BE HELD IN 1999 IN LOUISIANA. OUR ORGANIZATION, LES BERTRAND
MONDIAL (The Bertrands Worldwide), WILL HOLD ITS REUNION SATURDAY AND SUNDAY, AUGUST
14 & 15, 1999. THE REUNION WILL TAKE PLACE IN CROWLEY, LA, AT THE KNIGHTS OF COLUMBUS
HALL, 226 WEST ELM ST. AND IS OPEN TO ALL BERTRANDS OR ANY PERSONS RELATED TO THE
BERTRANDS [by birth or by heritage]. WE URGE EVERYONE TO BECOME INVOLVED BY BECOMING
MEMBERS AND TO JOIN US IN CELEBRATING THIS WORLDWIDE EVENT. IT IS IMPORTANT THAT
YOU SIGN UP FOR MEMBERSHIP AS SOON AS POSSIBLE. THIS WILL ENABLE US TO DETERMINE
HOW MANY TO EXPECT TO PARTICIPATE/ATTEND. WITH MEMBERSHIP, THERE WILL BE NO FEES
AT THE DOOR. “AT DOOR” FEES ARE STILL BEING DETERMINED BY THE COMMITTEE. THESE WILL
BE LIMITED!
:-) GENEALOGY PLAYS AN IMPORTANT PART OF OUR REUNION. OUR GENEALOGY CHAIRPERSON,
KATHY COMEAUX, IS ASKING YOU TO PLEASE SEND HER ANY INFORMATION YOU MAY
ALREADY HAVE ABOUT YOUR INDIVIDUAL FAMILIES. THIS INFO WILL HELP HER IN SETTING UP
HER BOOTH FOR THE REUNION.
:-) BESIDES MEMBERSHIP, WE ARE SELLING T-SHIRTS [with our family crest], CAPS AND LOOKING
FOR OTHER MEMENTO ITEMS. MEAL TICKETS CAN BE ORDERED NOW. WITH THE GENEROUS
HELP OF THE KNIGHTS OF COLUMBUS, WE CAN OFFER THREE MEAL TICKETS FOR $10.00, OR IF
YOU WISH, $5.00 PER MEAL.
:-) TO THOSE WHO ALREADY ARE MEMBERS, YOUR 1999 DUES ARE DUE. THOSE OF YOU WHO
PAID 1999 WITH YOUR 1998 WILL SEE THIS LISTED ON THE ENCLOSED INFORMATION. WE WISH
TO THANK ALL OF YOU THAT HAVE ALREADY BECOME MEMBERS. WITHOUT YOUR EARLY
MEMBERSHIP MONIES, WE WOULD NOT HAVE BEEN ABLE TO GET OUR REUNION PLANS
STARTED.
:-( AS WE ARE NOT ABLE TO REACH ALL OF THE DIFFERENT FAMILY MEMBERS, WE ASK THAT
YOU PASS THIS INFORMATION ON TO YOUR RESPECTIVE FAMILIES. INFORMATION TO SIGN UP
AND ORDER ITEMS AND MEALS IS ENCLOSED.
