Reconnect and celebrate our heritage
Family reunions aren’t just events — they’re investments in our roots, our relationships, and our future. In a world that moves faster than ever, taking time to gather reminds us who we are, where we come from, and the sacrifices our ancestors made so we could stand here today. When we show up, we don’t just share food and laughter — we share wisdom, stories, traditions, and the kind of love you can’t download or livestream. Attending a family reunion strengthens our bond, honors our history, and ensures the next generation grows up knowing they belong to something bigger than themselves. We owe it to the ones who came before us — and to the ones coming after — to keep this family strong, connected, and proud.

Day 2 of the Petty-Winston Family Reunion takes us outdoors for a full day of sunshine, laughter, and classic family fun at the park! From morning through the afternoon, we’ll enjoy good music, delicious food, and plenty of games for all ages. Bring your competitive spirit because the horseshoe pits and bean bag toss stations will be wide open—bragging rights are definitely on the line. Kids, adults, cousins of all ages… everyone is welcome to jump in, relax, and enjoy a beautiful day together. It’s all about family, fellowship, and making memories that last a lifetime
August 8 Night bowling
Looking to keep things light, easy, and full of laughs? Our Family Reunion Bowling Night is the perfect laid-back option for anyone who wants pure fun without the fuss. Picture this: friendly competition, high-fives after surprise strikes, playful trash talk between cousins, and plenty of laughter echoing down the lanes. No pressure, no stress—just good old-fashioned bowling where every roll counts (even the gutter balls… those make the best stories ). Whether you’re a seasoned bowler or just there for the vibes, this night is all about bonding, cheering each other on, and making memories one frame at a time. Grab your bowling shoes, pick a lucky ball, and let’s roll into a night the family will be talking about long after the pins stop falling!
August 9th ☀️ Day 3 Morning: Fellowship, Gratitude & Farewell
Day 3: Breakfast and Sermon
Day 3 begins with a peaceful and uplifting morning as the family gathers for a shared breakfast and a heartfelt sermon service to center our spirits and honor the blessing of togetherness. We’ll recognize the amazing reunion team for their hard work, celebrate the love that brought us all together, and take plenty of family pictures to capture the memories we’ve created. As the weekend comes to a close, the morning will be filled with warm hugs, final laughs, and loving farewells as everyone prepares to travel back home. It’s a beautiful ending to a powerful weekend of unity, joy, and family pride.
