Both sides of my family have reunions every year. On my mother's side, the reunion is always the first weekend in August. The location rotates every other year. It is held at a relative's house one year and the following year it is held at the homestead, the house where my grandmother and all of her brothers and sisters grew up.
My father's side of the family has a reunion every year in North Carolina at the house where my other grandmother grew up. This is normally an all out event. They have a family reunion talent show where people make their kids get up and impersonate Lil Bow Wow and do the Harlem Shake. There's family movie night and a family dance. This is like a family reunion vacation for everybody.
