All Godt's are welcome, if they are coming from the danish/ german or the westfalian family.  Even all  descendant, who don't  have the name Godt, but are interested in the family, are very welcome.

This reunion will be organised by Bob Godt.
It will be held at the weekend from Friday, July, 25. to Sunday, 27.07.2008

Brand new information from Bob at June, 14th

Dear Hans-Juergen,

I called the Hilton Garden Inn today to make a room reservation.

Nobody at either number I sent you knew anything. I finally got things figured out. The only way to make a reservation with the cheaper room rates is to call 404-766-0303 and to ask to be transferred to "Sales" or to speak with Candice. There is no way to reserve via e-mail or the hotel web-site to get the cheaper rates! This seems very primitive in today's technology but that's the way it is.

I hope family members have not been discouraged in trying to make reservations. Please put this new information on the Godt Family web page as soon as possible since the cheaper rates are only valid until 26 June.

Sorry for the confusion.

Bob
