This project is sponsored by the Cemetery Committee and the funds go to maintain the Cemetery Fund which is used to repair and maintain our ancestors' grave sites. Each family attending, is urged to bring at least one item to donate for this auction. Also, Reunion 2000 T-shits will be for sale at another table. Any profit made from shirt sales go to the CFA general fund.

Saturday lunch will be served by the Clarion Hotel staff. Following lunch there will be a 'round table' introduction and story-telling time, interspersed with group singing. This is the time when memories and stories of the Casey families are shared. At 4:PM there will be a CFA business meeting, ending by 5:PM.
