We just want everyone to come out and have fun. This is a fun event for the entire family.

Last year we had 598 attending; this year we hope for 1,000 under the big tent.

This year's event will be bigger and better than last year. Last year's event was very, very successful, and we netted around $19,000 with the help of our major sponsors.

Following the parade, will be the 15-piece Harp and Thistle Pipe Band of Southwest Florida. They will have a 30-minute show under the main tent until 4:30 p.m.

He was actually an image pulled from our logo, and we had a contest to name him. We thought he would make for a great mascot.

Family reunions are a lot of fun,
