In October 2009 we will be holding in Jerusalem a Gathering of the RIVLIN family. Our previous family gathering took place in 1980 with 2600 of the family present. We are inviting all descendants of Shlomo Zalman Rivlin who lived in Shklov, Belarus in the mid 18th Century. We will not be surprised if it attracts 5000 members of the family .
I am interested to know if JewishGenners have participated in similarly large gatherings and what advice they can give our organising commitee.
