Dear Family,
The Philadelphia Chapter is looking forward to this year’s Robinson Roots Family
Reunion and seeing you. The planning is almost completed so that we have a wonderful
time together in Philadelphia for the Labor Day weekend.
This 49th reunion will be held in the heart of the city at the Hampton Inn Hotel – near landmarks and great attractions including the Liberty Bell, the African American Museum, the Reading Terminal Farmers’ Market, the Fashion District, Penn’s Landing, and many more places to explore. We are looking forward to our family visiting the beautiful city of Philadelphia.
Our theme for this year’s reunion is “Family Ties: Unbreakable, Unforgettable” with
Scripture reference Hebrews 6:19a as a reminder that God is the anchor of our family.
Our reunion center for the weekend will be the Hampton Inn, 1301 Race Street,

approaching; a wonderful opportunity to visit with one another and for the Philadelphia
Chapter to host and serve our family.
