Why are Family Reunions Important ?
We all need to re-connect.
Connection is the biggest reason to plan a reunion. A reunion re-establishes that connection we felt growing up when cousins were visiting regularly and we went for Sunday dinners at Grandma’s house.
Journal of Family Psychology study showed that 59% of adolescents reported learning new and meaningful information about grandparents from family reunions.
As humans, we crave that sense of belonging, attachment and a connection to others. Knowing your background, that sense of who we are as a family, helps to develop a stronger sense of family.
Lifestyles are busier now. Sometimes we forget to put importance on sharing our time with family. But, rituals, such as family reunions, are associated with marital satisfaction, adolescents’ sense of personal identity, mental health, academic achievement and stronger family relationships.
Outdoor Adventure Games
Sometimes families love to play outdoors. We have four trails to choose from, all at different difficulty levels. Teams of players will have a map and must look for specific stations. Each station has a challenge to solve. Once you solve the challenges on the trail, your crew will rush back to lock in their time. It’s great for those competitive types to try to get the best time over other teams.
