Thanks to all 170 of you who participated in the 2018 Kwan Family Reunion – we couldn’t have done it without you! We were very pleased to see so many attendees (including many first- and second-timers!), have the opportunity to meet new Kwans, spend quality time with each other, and learn more about our Kwan family history.

While it’s still fresh in our minds, we would like each of you to participate in a reunion survey, including those of you who weren’t able to join us – it will be helpful to the next reunion planners. The survey should only take 5-10 minutes to fill out. You’ll also have the opportunity to purchase additional Kwan Family cookbooks and/or 2018 KFR tote bags.

We will also follow up with a place to share your photos from the reunion, as well as a place for the StoryCorps audio recordings we captured. If any of you are still interested in recording a story, just let us know. Additionally, presentations from the general session available below.

Keep up the connections to the Kwans you’ve met; in a few short years, we’ll be meeting again at the next reunion in 2021!

It was an honor to serve as your hosts for the 2018 Kwan Family Reunion!

Mahalo,
