IMPORTANT! PLEASE READ!

Dear Phinizy Cousins,

As you likely know, Hurricane Helene caused massive damage to Augusta, Georgia. Many of our cousins sustained damage to their homes and neighborhoods, and power will not be fully restored to Augusta for perhaps another week. At least one of the venues, and perhaps others, has sustained major damage. In light of everything, the Reunion Committee has determined that it is necessary to postpone the October 18-20 Augusta reunion to February 21-23, 2025. This website will be updated with adjusted information in the coming weeks.

IMPORTANT:  If you are registered for the reunion, you should 1) cancel your hotel reservations as soon as possible to avoid any penalties, and 2) cancel any flights you may have booked. 

REGISTRATION FEES:  We will plan to hold your registration fees for next time. But if it turns out you are unable to attend the rescheduled reunion, or if you prefer to have your registration fees returned now, we will gladly issue a refund. Please contact Clay Boardman at clay@augcap.com if you would like a refund.

*** Very Important!!!  We again would like to ask pholks to consider making voluntary donations to the “Phund” to help cover the cost of postage, the phamily database, decorations, catering costs etc.  These Phund donations make it possible for us to keep our prices reasonable and still break even. 

We have two hotel blocks for PHINGUSTA: The Partridge Inn in historic Summerville and The Hyatt House located in downtown Augusta. Please visit the accommodations page for details on how to book these blocks.

Dress is casual for all of our events. We encourage everyone to wear comfortable clothes and walking shoes to Phinizy Swamp. Admission for Phinizy Swamp and the canal boat tour are included in the flat fee.

Counting down the days until we are all in Augusta together. If you have questions or concerns regarding Phingusta please email Carol Palmer: cdhpalmer@gmail.com.

Sincerely,

Your 2024 Phinizy family reunion committee
