How it all started

The "BURG" Family Reunion Club started out as a group of passionate born and raised individuals who have a strong care for the town we all grew up in called the "BURG" (Leesburg). We started with planning a yearly event for the "BURG" families meeting to plan an exciting, eventful, and enjoyable reunion. This group started out with Irvin Greene, Rebecca Thomas, and Grace Roberts meeting monthly to plan the annual reunion. Our group has grown as we have added to our Board some wonderful people who are just as passionate as we are to make this yearly occasion EPIC!
