THE MCDARIS FAMILY REUNION...
...was held on Saturday, September 19th, in Chattanooga, Tennessee, at the Ridgedale Baptist Church gymnasium (because of the bad weather we were able to move from Camp Jordan, our original site, to the church by the help of Debbie and Doug Goode.) This turned out to be a great location for all.

Fifty-seven people attended (ages 90 years to 6 months.) There were eleven toddlers and infants present. I must say they kept us old folks on our toes. Rob and Sudi McDaris and their children traveled the farthest distance from Simpsonville, South Carolina. Others came from Alabama, Georgia, South Carolina, and Tennessee. Many thanks to all of those that brought food. It was wonderful. What a great opportunity to reminisce with old and new members of the McDaris Clan. Thanks to Glenda and her family for sponsoring our gathering this year. Next year it will be sponsored by Geri and her family. Hope to see everyone in September 2010.
