The 2004 Utah GT was
held high in the mountains of
Utah at Daniels Summit Lodge!

The retreat atmosphere gave
everyone that attended a
unique experience that was
more like a family reunion!

 

I loved the scenic choice for this GT !! That area of Utah is breath-taking!
I would love to see this type of get-together become an annual event.

If you didn't bring a smile with you..
we gave you one!

 


Merrill kicked off the events by greeting everyone...


Then he spent time at each table... 


...laughing and singing!
And sometimes getting into deep discussions...

 

Thanks to everyone, this was the best GT I ever attended. ~ Laurie

Wayne joined the group on


Sunday and entertained with his jokes & magic!  

 


He also joined Merrill on the
Inspiration hour...


and along with Justin joined
in on the nature walk!

 

I'm just now starting to come back down to earth. I had a great time at the GT. Merrill was his sweet self.
It was very peaceful there.

Merrill's family joined him on Saturday
and Heather gifted everyone with a starter charm bracelet to kick off her new web company osmondcharms.com!

 

You'll be hearing more about
osmondcharms.com soon!  

 

Merrill definitely accomplished what he wanted with a family reunion feeling. Good times were had by all and
lots of quality time was spent with Merrill, Jay and Wayne as well as members of their families. ~Florian

 


Father Osmond dropped in on Friday night!

Jay arrived with his son Jason!

Jason's band performed for the group!

 

I had a wonderful time. I am so happy that I finally got to go to Utah!!!! ~ Anne

 


There was fighting (good natured of course)!
"Black Belt Sheila" is checking to see if
Merrill still knows his moves.


And plenty of Bear hugs to go around!

 

...and all the hugs (yes Merrill, I can handle them without pulling back...most of the time I had FUN!! ~ Sheila

 



Fishing is one of Merrill's favorite pastimes and
this time he invited folks along to join in on the fun!

 

I went on the fishing trip. What a fun time. Merrill was so sweet, and tried to get my fishing line untangled. OMG...it was so fun, I would not trade this weekend for anything.  ~ Laurie

 


There were sing a longs...


Discussions on Merrill's book
~ Let the Reason be Love~

 

The GT was truly out of this world, everyone had a chance to spend some quality time with Merrill. ~Julie J

 


Nature walks...


...and picnics!

 

Merrill did the different activities with the assigned groups and that made for some unique conversations. I was in the dessert group, and it contained some discussion on healing and energy and eliminating those "fear doors" that prevent us from success. I hope the other members of the group enjoyed it as much as I did. ~ Victoria

 

 


On Saturday night the treat was...


 ...seeing all three brothers perform!

 

The weekend at Daniel's Summit and the show in Orem was nothing short of spectacular. ~ Florian

 


Everyone reported a great time...


An annual event? Merrill says, "Yes"

 

This was a very spiritual time for each of us I believe, it is really hard to put into words, it's a heart thing.
We will never be able to capture what happened there again, I will hold it close to my heart forever. ~Julie R
