THE OVERMYER REUNION CHALLENGE - 2009This is a featured page

Gathering of Overmyer Cousins - Richland Center Cemetery


All of you who attended the 2009 Overmyer Reunion remember to take the historian's challenge! Write down what just happened. Now is the time to record the many wonderful experiences you had at the reunion. I've listed a few ideas to encourage your important effort.

(1) Describe how you found out about the reunion and what led you to make the commitment to attend.

(2) Who did you invite to journey with you to this reunion and why them?

(3) How did you get to the reunion. What experiences did you have making the arrangements

(4) What were your reunion expectations, goals, and hopes? Was this your first reunion of any kind?

(5) was this your first Overmyer Reunion experience?

(6) Where did you stay?

(7) What did you eat, and who did you share meals with?

(8) Did learn something about yourself of family you didn't know before?

(9) Okay for the ladies . . . what did you wear? (Actually, some of our men folk were dressed to the nines).

(10) Tell about the new friends you made and why they became friends.

WHAT WOULD LIKE YOUR FAMILY TO KNOW ABOUT THIS EXPERIENCE ONE HUNDRED YEARS FROM NOW?


Feel free to submit your results to me and we'll put a little booklet together that can be shared at our next reunion experience. BSH.

Starting a couple days after the historic 2009 Overmyer National Reunion, the record is already being written on a number of levels. The Fulton County Historical Society has already created a file in their vast museum collection to preserve our special three day gathering and celebration. That means many generations from now your descendants will be able to connect themselves, through you to their Overmyer heritage. They'll be able to see that you made the journey to the reunion. The Fulton County historian has also started a collection of artifacts to document this moment in our modern history.
