Sunday Family Picnic
Emmett City Park

 

Sunday - August 5th, 2001

On Sunday we had our big finale with a Family Picnic in the Emmett City Park.  The reunion staff decided to do all the fixins' and with help from classmate volunteers proceeded to put on a big feast of hotdogs, hamburgers, barbecue chicken and a few ribs from Saturday night's barbecue.  We had all kids eating free and the old and young kids alike were having fun.  It was nice to wind down and finish off our reunion happy.

A few people showed up who hadn't been to any other events and with kids, we had 130 plus people.  Once again the weather was fantastic and conversations were a plenty.  It was sad winding down though as we knew it would be a while before we gathered again for such an event.  Classmates from near and far attended and we had a great picnic and close.

So as unfortunate as it was, the reunion had to end and we all began to go back to our current lives.  Everyone was glad they attended, after all there wouldn't be another 20 year high school reunion.  The bright side is our next 25th or 30th year reunion will be coming and hopefully everyone will be able to attend again and those who couldn't make it to this one can enjoy a little from our internet recap and come to the next one.

Take care everyone and see you next reunion!
