FAMILY REUNIONS
Over the years, The Canyon Motel & RV Park has been the site for numerous family reunions. If you’re looking for a location for the simplest of reunions and fairly inexpensive for all, then The Canyon Motel & RV Park is a great setting. In the evening you might want to enjoy a barbecue on the outdoor patio and later gather around the outdoor fire ring to roast some marshmallows and share stories. If everyone brings his or her own food (you know, sharing and creating a massive pot luck or smorgasbord), this becomes very easy to plan and carry out. Then, you might even want to take advantage of the indoor swimming pool area or toss some horseshoes out in the horseshoe arena. If you’ve never held a reunion before and are a rookie to all of this, then this could very well be the way to go. It takes less time to plan and doesn’t cost a whole lot. During the day, you can take a trip to The Grand Canyon, Sedona or any one of numerous other options Northern Arizona has to offer. On another evening, you all might want to have a nice dinner at a good restaurant in town. These kinds of things really don’t require a large amount of planning on your part. All you need to do is make reservations, plan a few activities for people to enjoy, and notify relatives of the address and location of where this great happening is going to be. If some of your family is the outdoors type, they can take advantage of our family RV Park. The RV sites as well as the tent sites are large enough for the family to enjoy.
GROUPS, CLUBS & ORGANIZATIONS
