CHERRY

REUNION

In 1892, James V. Cherry moved to the United States. There, he married Mary Colosi and had 11 children. Over the next several decades, the Cherry family continued to expand with nearly two dozen grandchildren, dozens of great-grandchildren, and many great-great-grandchildren. The goal of this reunion is to bring us back together.

What to Expect

A Fun Family Weekend

While the Cherry family started in Pennsylvania, our family has expanded across the country and world. Some of you may have not seen your cousins in years. Others have never met their second cousins. The oldest family member is 97 years old, and the youngest are only a few months old. It’s been a long time since we have had a family gathering, and we can’t waste any more time waiting.

Get ready to recount memories, eat, and meet the newest additions to our family. Don’t worry, we will also have activities for the children! If you’re going to be in DuBois the whole weekend, we will also have other events planned between Friday and Sunday.

Hotel Block

We were able to secure some rooms at a discounted rate in DuBois. There is a limited number, so reserve your room before they are all gone. Call Comfort Suites and say you are with the Cherry block.

Planning the Event

While we have the date, there are still parts of the weekend on which we are working on. We would love your input! Many family members will be meeting several times over the next several months to plan. Let Rachel or Madeline know if you would like to participate.

Contributions

A lot goes into running a reunion. Once we have more plans set, we will be reaching out on how you can help. Feel free to contact Rachel or Madeline if there is something you specifically want to contribute.
