The 58th Annual McCollum Family Reunion was held on a beautiful Sunday afternoon on June 1. The gathering was held in Clifton at the Berner Memorial Park, beginning with a delicious potluck with enough food to feed an army. Following the lunch, came photo sessions, reminiscing, updates and games. The little ones enjoyed an afternoon spent in the Kiddy Park.
