THE ANGUS & MARY DOIRON DESCENDANTS FAMILY WEBSITE

All the information about the reunion will be posted here for anyone to use. It will also provide contact information so you can ask your questions directly to the organizers. Most importantly, this website is intended to bring the stories and the images we all share "TO LIFE" for current and future generations.

Norma Fuchs (Calgary AB) (John and Alice) and Monica Simpson (St. Ann's PEI) (Yvonne and Roland),  Marina Doiron (Oyster Bed Bridge PEI) (Estelle & Alban), Sandra Burke (Calgary AB)(Estelle & Alban) and Lou Doiron (Chestermere AB) (Lionel & Shirley) have volunteered to organize the reunion. They can be contacted directly through the links on the CONTACT US page on this website.

It will be scheduled to start at St. Ann's Church at 5PM Friday August 9 and will run through Sunday August 11, 2024. All events will happen in the St. Ann's / Rustico / Cavendish region.

The reunion is being planned for the direct descendants of Angus and Mary Doiron, specifically the children, grandchildren, great grandchildren and great-great grandchildren of the 11 children born to Angus and Mary.  Obviously, in todays world, families have become blended and extended. So given that, if you feel a connection to these 11 families and are willing to pay the entry fee, then you are welcome, although there are limits on the number of people the venues can hold so preference will be given to the direct descendants first. Close friends and other DOIRON relations are also most welcome to register. Ultimately, we will do our best to accommodate everyone wanting to join in the fun.

We are asking each of the families to put together poster boards of their family and bring them to the Saturday event at the North Rustico  Lions Hall at 4 PM. They will get posted for all attendees to view. This will hopefully prompt story-telling amongst the people attending which is a great way to keep the legacy going and keep our loved ones present in our lives.

YES:  There are capacity limits for the indoor venues so ticket sales are limited to the first 250 people so BOOK & GET YOUR TICKETS EARLY. Preference will be given to the children, grandchildren, great grandchildren and great-great grandchildren of the 11 children born to Angus and Mary. If that number is reached then the Organizing Committee will consider other options at that time. The CELEBRATION MASS at St. Ann's Church on Friday evening and the FAREWELL BBQ on Sunday at noon at Shining Waters Park Pavillion in Cavendish have no capacity restrictions. The TALENT SHOWCASE on Friday evening will have capacity for 200, the TURKEY SUPPER  and  DANCE on Saturday evening has a capacity of 250.

Yes there is a cost to attend.  There are 3 options available, a cost for all weekend events for Adults (17 and older) including the turkey, and a cost for all events for children 16 and under and a cost for adults just wanting to attend the events and not take in the Turkey Supper.  There is no cost for children 16 and under who also want to attend the events and not take in the Turkey Supper. See the registration options above on this page. Any left-over funds from the event will be donated to a local charity or service chosen by the organizers.

Absolutely. All donations are welcome. Significant donations will receive recognition on thus website after the reunion has ended. The organizers will have costs for hall rentals, use of the church, audio equipment rentals, with the largest cost being the Saturday night dance band and upkeep of the website as an on-going legacy. Just reach out to us here through our contact page, or call one of the organizers directly, or choose the "DONATE TO THE EVENT" button on the registration selections above.  Any excess cash collected exceeding the actual cost of staging the reunion will be allocated to a local charity or cause announced after the reunion ends.

See the Schedule of Events at the top of this page. There are family members talking about organizing a possible golf tournament and a group fishing trip but these won’t be part of the coordination by the reunion organizers. Just ask around if anything of this nature is happening, or take the lead and organize something.

No. Everyone is responsible for securing their own arrangements for accommodations for the event. We suggest you book early.

Sorry - No refunds. If you have a last minute emergency and cannot attend, let us know and we will turn your tickets dollars into a donation to the reunion which will be acknowledged on this website after the reunion. Thank you.

Yes - at every event the organizers have arranged to have a videographer and a photographer present to capture the images and fun of the day. These images and videos will eventually be used to create a "movie" of the Reunion, as a legacy to share with all attendees and related family members. The photos will be posted to a site that will offer the ability to download pictures as you wish.  

All images may be used on the organizers website, amdoironpei.com. As well some images may find their way to social media outlets such as Facebook, Instagram, and others, although that is not the intention of the organizers. Acceptance and use of the ticket you purchase provides your permission to use your image and likeness for these purposes. Should you wish to not have your image used, please inform one of the organizers prior to the start of the events on Friday, August 9, 2024.
