Hi Marcia!
How much are you looking to spend per night?
Check out the Hyatt Regency at Penns Landing. Nice atmosphere and good location.
As far as the theme goes: "Focus On The Family" You can focus on past memebers and their lifestyles and contributions to your family. Have members send in photos and a brief synopsis: ie: what branch they are from, what they do for a living, where they live and their immediate family members. You can post them around your event, perhaps on a large tree. This way you can focus on who you are.
You might want to include a disposable camera in their hotel welcome bags/baskets with a note: "Let's focus on Our Family" and instruct them to use the camera to take pictures of one another at your get togethers as well as their private outing time. The pictures can later be put on CD or in a Photo book that you can make several copies of, or even in a family cookbook. Take orders for these. The proceeds can go toward a family college fund or towards future reunions.
Happy planning!

P.S. If you need any further help, let me know. I do a lot of event planning. Groups are my specialty.
