Nearly 70 Years of Gathering Together
Since 1955, the Clark Family has gathered annually to honor our roots, strengthen our bonds, and celebrate the legacy of those who came before us. What began as a single gathering hosted by Matthew and Lula Mae Clark in Chatham, Virginia has grown into one of our family’s most cherished traditions — spanning generations, miles, and decades.
