ACTIVITES
The primary social activity of the Society is the annual family reunion that is held in Michigan in July. Occasionally cousins from Holland attend reunions; at least two American family tours to the Netherlands have been conducted. A continual effort is made to update the family album with births, deaths, marriages, new chlidren, etc.
During the past few years Society officers (assisted by numerous cousins) have updated the family booklet originally published in 1973 by Lawrence Hoornstra. The new edition was delivered to members July 2007.
