Family Reunion - the HOGG HOEDOWN
 
Hogg Hoedown 2007
 

July 13, 14 & 15

 


 


The 2007 reunion was once again be held at the home of Mike and Tammy Stanley in Perry, GA.

Mike and Tammy have graciously hosted our reunion every two years since 1993. They have put a lot of time, effort, personal funds and energy into making sure that each reunion was better and more fun than the one before.

The 2007 reunion had a BEACH theme.

Friday night (July 13th)  was "Get-Aquainted Nite" (from 7-10pm). Refreshments will be served. A hayride was part of the festivities. Genealogy materials were available for viewing.


Starting at 10am on Sat., July 14th, the Beach theme continued with the bulk of the reunion activities. Music, fishing, animals, wilderness trails, games, drinks & snacks were be available all throughout the day/ The "petting zoo" now has 38 goats, 5 ducks, 4 geese, 3 dozen chickens & roosters and 6 peacocks (2 of the peacocks are solid white!)  The 25x20 swimming pool stayed full with happy, spalshing kids, and the 1500 square foot pavillion is now wired for electricity, and has 15 ceiling fans keeping us cool!  At noon, lots of food was served, (ribs, BBQ, chicken, potato salad, green beans & more) and later in the afternoon there were  group pictures taken, playing bingo for prizes - and MORE FOOD! Prizes were awarded for the oldest, youngest, who traveled the greatest distance, and other assorted door prizes. We had a little rain, but it was brief, and not enough to "dampen" the festivities.

This year, Tammy & Mike unveiled an additional 2 1/2 acres that feature a beautiful man-made pond, swings, small bridge, barn & huge crepe myrtle trees. Tammy was busy all day giving everyone personal tours on her new golf cart.


Sunday morning  (July 15th) at 10 am Mike & Tammy served "Breakfast & Goodbyes". Pancakes, sausage, sweet rolls, juice, coffee were served.

Tables, easels and walls of family photos, documents, stories and information were available for all attendees to browse. Each attendee  received updated geneology information. T-shirts, group/branch photos were available at minimal prices for those who want them. The photos will be distributed as soon as they are processed. A cd presentation of photos from previous reunions is also available - contact Lee@Hogg-site.org to order.

The Country Store,for those family members who are crafty and like to bring items to sell, remained busy all day. The items presented for sale show that we have an extremely talented family! (Hogg Helpers manned the store so that no one missed out on reunion activities.)

 

The next reunion will have a prehistoric theme, and will be held in July of 2009.
