Fortunately, Drive offers a place to keep all of your family reunion files, and a way to organize them through folders, subfolders and color coding. Once you’ve scheduled everything, you’ll want a place to store your important documents and memories. Use folders in Google Drive to organize your memories and documents I also learned about calendar entries called Tasks that you can use to prompt yourself to remember small things like “pick up groceries for the family reunion.” Like events, you can even make these entries repeat for the tasks that require frequent attention. Afterwards, I knew how to customize notifications that only alerted me about an event when it was most helpful for me. To learn how to use both features, I took the Organize Your Day with Google Calendar and Create Task in Calendar lessons. So if later you decide to hold the picnic in your aunt’s backyard instead of the park, you can easily change the location in the invite and send an email update to guests.Īnd to make sure you’re on top of everything, Calendar helps you remember events and things on your to-do list through notifications and Google Tasks. Thankfully, Calendar lets you send modifiable invitations. The most important part of any family reunion is… family! If it’s your responsibility to invite them, you want to let them know early, even though you might not have all the details finalized. Kick off your planning with Google Calendar Here’s how to do it when you’re planning your own family barbecue or reunion picnic. Now, I can easily keep track of plans and many of my family’s memories using some of my favorite apps in Google Workspace. Thanks to lessons from Google’s Applied Digital Skills program, I’ve learned how to add some coordination to our barbecues. Encouraged by memories of our growing tradition (and the chance to become the favorite grandchild), I started researching tools to plan family gatherings.
Somehow we didn’t have a system for our tradition, which got frustrating when we started having more guests than space. Yet after years of barbecues, questions like “who’s coming again?” and “can someone send me the group photos?” still circled the picnic table. We’d have an invitation sent around with a date and a suggested time, and that’s about it.
For years, a barbecue has been our simple way to get our loved ones together - and there wouldn’t be much planning involved. For my Texan family, anything is an opportunity to barbecue: a long weekend, some good weather, or just a good day in general.
