Family members gather in August in Pinetops to attend in the 16th biannual Vines-Barnes Family Reunion. |
Just looking into some family history and had know idea that the 2014 Vines-Barnes Family Reunion was featured in the Rocky Mount Telegram. Check us out!!
In a weekend filled with love, joy, smiles, fun and fellowship, the Vines-Barnes family descended on the town of Pinetops to attend the 16th biannual Vines-Barnes Family Reunion. Family members from as far away as Cancun, Mexico, and as close as Pinetops gathered Aug. 1-3 at Carver Elementary School for the three-day event. First-time family participants traveled from Richmond, Va., and the Atlanta area.
This was the largest reunion to date, as more than 250 family members participated. The festivities included a fish fry on Friday, a buffet style dinner Saturday and an appreciation luncheon Sunday.
During the fish fry, family members played bingo, participated in a 50/50 raffle and socialized. The meal included fish, hot dogs, french fries, baked beans, coleslaw and desserts. Abrams BBQ of Tarboro catered the meal.
