Greetings Family!

It’s time to grab your shovels — because we’re digging deep and going Back to Our Roots!  We are beyond thrilled to announce the return of the Jones Girls Family Reunion! By the grace of God, our family tree has continued to grow and flourish, and now it’s time to gather around it, water it with laughter, and celebrate the roots that connect us all while letting new memories bloom.

The past few years have brought many twists and challenges — from hurricanes to COVID-19, wildfires, and even the heartbreaking loss of loved ones — but through it all, our family has stayed rooted and strong. Just like our family tree, we’ve weathered every storm, and now it’s time to branch out, reconnect, share stories, make new memories, and celebrate what makes this family so incredibly special.

As you know, a family reunion isn’t a reunion without YOU. We’re giving everyone plenty of time to plan, because it is our deepest hope that every single cousin, auntie, uncle, sister, brother, and grandbaby attends. And if finances are a concern, don’t worry – we’ve put together flexible payment plans so everyone can join the fun without breaking the bank!

Where & When:
We’re heading to sunny California 🌞 from June 18 – June 21, 2026! The fun kicks off at 6:00pm in San Diego with a lively Meet & Greet — complete with light refreshments. So, grab a plate, bring a cousin, and let’s officially kick off our “Back to Our Roots” celebration together!

Lodging:
We’ve locked in a special block of rooms at The Handlery Hotel just for our family — at a fantastic group rate! Even better, these rates are available for three (3) days before and three (3) days after the reunion, so come early, stay late, and soak up that California sunshine. 🌞 Don’t wait too long — the deadline to snag your room is May 1, 2026!

Family Dues & Donations:
Let’s keep the lights on and the good times rolling! 🎉 Family Dues are collected every other year from all members and must be paid in full by April 30th. You can make a one-time payment or take advantage of one of our flexible payment plans — whatever works best for you.

• Family Dues help us keep our family website running, support activities, facility rentals, incidentals, and other year-round expenses that keep us connected and make our reunion amazing. Dues increase May 1st, so pay early and save

• Donations can be made in honor of a loved one, to help a family in need through Jones Angels, or as a general gift to support our family fund.

Please note: all fees are nonrefundable, but funds can be transferred if needed and will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. Family Dues will not be used to cover lodging, travel, or other ancillary costs associated with attending the family reunion.
