Time For Our Online Friendships to Meet Face to Face

Invitation to the 2011: Bulgarian Adoptees Picnic/Reunion






WHO:   Families who have adopted, are committed to adopt, waiting to adopt, or considering to adopt a Bulgarian orphan. If you need to travel by "samuleta" (airplane), PLEASE let me know. 


WHEN:    July 22-24, 2011


WHERE:   Hueston Woods State Park, a very picturesque location just northeast of Cincinnati, OH. 

WHAT: 
  • Bulgarian Cultural Activities
  • Arts and Crafts
  • Water Activities
  • Hiking
  • Bonfires
WHY: 
  • Because we have adopted, are considering adoption, or are waiting to adopt an orphan from Bulgaria.
  •  Because we will all have adoption experiences to share.  
  • Because it will be wonderful to meet and share our stories
  • Because it will let our little Bulgarians/Americans hang out and understand that they are not alone in their journey and assimilation into American culture.
  • Because we plan to incorporate Bulgarian culture to keep our children's culture alive.
  • Because the siblings of our Bulgarian children need to hang out and share their own stories about their Bulgarian brother(s)/sister(s).
  • Because it is a great excuse to get away and to just have a... great time!
