The Historic, Epic, 90th JD & Amanda Whelchel Reunion!
July 6th & 7th, 2024
Come celebrate the wonderful Whelchel Family!
We’re thrilled to announce the 90th reunion is right around the corner. This is truly a special occasion and your chance to catch up with your cousins, aunts, uncles. Whether you’re a first-timer or old-timer, there will be something for everyone to enjoy. We want to see you there!
The fun starts Saturday afternoon at the Rec Center. New this year: Cheryl Brian & Mandy Pigue are setting up Pickleball. As always there’s basketball and you’re likely to see a chess match or two. Saturday night turns into a fun-filled pizza party! Bring your own drinks and any other food is always welcome. This is great opportunity to catch up with one another, reminisce about old memories and create new ones together.
The highlight of the reunion is Sunday, with the official program beginning at noon. Please come early to visit and set up your family bulletin board. Bring your favorite dish to go with the furnished bar-b-que, Brunswick stew, and some sweet tea. After the program, cruise the dessert table and then take a trip down memory lane with a stroll by the bulletin boards.
Name tags will be printed for those who "usually" attend and those who have informed us that they will be coming this year. You can check the online tree to see who is getting a name tag. If you have any changes or corrections, contact gene...@whelchel.org.
Kids (and adults) love to see their names on the tree. You can check the latest tree to make sure you and your loved ones are there. If you have updates for the tree, send them to gene...@whelchel.org.
Changes for name tags and the family tree must be submitted by June 28.
Please send all family events of interest since the last reunion to John Fenn Foster, Historian.
The 90th is huge. Order new T-shirts, hats or other swag with the same colors as the 75th. Let’s make this reunion a memorable one filled with love, laughter and a celebration of our family’s legacy!
