Today I met with two other comittee members from the Coweta County Genealogical Society (CCGS) to start organizing our ideas for a "Grantville Reunion". We plan to do a reunion event each year for a different community in the county. A "Madras Reunion" was held in May 2009 and was a huge success. People even came from other states to attend the event, hoping to run into childhood classmates and acquaintances. They brought old yearbooks, scrapbooks, photographs, etc. to share with their family and friends. We are constantly being asked about hosting another "Madras Reunion"!
The Grantville Reunion is being planned for Saturday, May 21, 2011 in the City of Grantville, GA. If you have Grantville connections or would be interested in volunteering we would like to hear from you! Please contact CCGS at info@ccgsinc.org or visit the website at http://www.ccgsinc.org/
