Message Board Post:
The reunion you are referring to is a community reunion of the founding families of
Grandview. There are I think five families; Carper, Shumate, Scott, Oliver, and McClure.
The reunion is held the first Saturday of August but it is no longer at the park. It is
now held at a very nice area belonging to a church. As you are headed down the road toward
the park there will be a sign at a road to the right. We are descended from the Carper
family also. My husband's grandmother was Myrtle Figgatt who was the daughter of
Fannie Carper Haney. We have attended the reunion for the past five years. Let me know if
I can be of any more help.
