INTERPRETATION OF THE RESULTS:
- the majority cite Heritage (7), Connecting (7), Family (6), History (6), as reasons for attending,
- the Buffet and Tours are NOT priorities (2),
- the main reasons for NOT attending are: Too Busy, No Transportation, Health, (1)
- the majority say they will attend the 100th anniversary reunion in 2027, (7)
- the majority interests for attending the 100th anniversary reunion in 2027 are:
- (7) Group Photograph
- (4) Stewart Ancestors Properties Tour in Ailsa Craig
- (3) Bagpipes
- (3) Stewart Ancestors Cemetery Tour
- (2) Speaker
- (2) Scottish Dancers
- (2) North Middlesex Historical Society Museum Tour
- (2) Stewart Ancestors Properties Tour outside of Ailsa Craig
- (1) Music
- from the top four above, 100th reunion event planning should focus on: 1. Group Photo, 2. Ancestor Properties Tour in Ailsa Craig, 3. Nairn Cemetery Tour, 4. Bagpipes (tours were designed to be self-guided, but for this 100th anniversary event, perhaps should be facilitated and recorded)
- it is IMPORTANT (6/2) that we continue our Stewart Reunion* beyond 100 (“in some form”)
- the majority (7) SUPPORTS our attendance at the Ailsa Craig Scottish Festival* as a replacement for our reunion,
- should the Festival* be our new reunion format, we should focus on more volunteer participation in the Festival* event,
- based on our participation at the 2026 Festival event, Liz, Greg, Bob, Gail, Elise, Amie, should be our 2027 event ambassadors,
- the responses to the last two questions are encouraging for me as administrator of the Genealogy and the Reunion websites, it is clear that the majority intends to use both websites as their primary sources of reunion and genealogy information …
