Our Events

Our events are where the legacy lives—where stories are shared, bonds are strengthened, and new chapters begin. From reunions and memorials to community gatherings and outreach efforts, each event is a chance to show up, stand together, and carry forward what was built. Whether you’re a longtime member or newly connected, mark your calendar and be part of the moments that remind us who we are.
