It's All Family!

It has been an action packed summer so far; between my second shift job, volunteering, and writing this blog, I have managed to hold it all together. So now, its family time!

This weekend marks the 31st Midwest Regional Black Family Reunion at Sawyer Point, an annual event held on the third weekend in August in Cincinnati. In 1989, this event was the brainchild of Dr Dorothy I. Height, who was the former president of the National Council of Negro Women. This celebration reinforces and upholds the historic morals and values of the African American family in America through community service, spiritual nourishment, and coming together just to be in the presence of greatness, no matter who we are.
