Weekend Highlights and Venue Secured!

We’re thrilled to share that Schrier Park is officially reserved for our main reunion gathering on Saturday, August 8, 2026! While we’re planning for a beautiful day outdoors, we’ve secured a private building on-site with air-conditioning, indoor bathrooms, and seating—perfect for cooling off, relaxing, or escaping any surprise weather. Comfort and connection, rain or shine! We are also actively planning the rest of the weekend’s fun:

  • Thursday, August 6 – Meet & Greet
    Evening icebreaker with finger foods, games, family trivia, and plenty of bonding. (Details still being finalized.)
  • Friday, August 7 – Family Fun Day Activities—stay tuned!
  • Saturday, August 8 – BBQ at Schrier Park
    Menu includes ribs, hamburgers, chicken, hot dogs, sides, desserts, and non-alcoholic beverages. (Final details coming soon.)
  • Sunday, August 9 – Family Worship Service
    Location: Mt. Zion Baptist Church
    Join us for our final family gathering as we close out the reunion weekend with love and togetherness — it’s a moment to celebrate our family’s journey. Whether you worship, reflect, or simply show up with love in your heart, this is for everyone.
