• Take photos and enjoy the warm welcome of family you haven’t seen in far too long

We haven’t been together in two years — today is about closing that gap and opening our hearts.

We close out Day Three with a special evening dedicated to one of Danville’s most iconic figures: Wendell Scott, NASCAR’s first Black driver to win a Grand National race.

🏁 Stories from the Scott Family

Wendell Scott’s children will join us once again to share personal memories, answer questions, and reflect on their father’s groundbreaking legacy. You’ll also have the chance to share your own Wendell Scott stories — the ones passed down through generations or experienced firsthand.

It’s an evening of pride, inspiration, and community as we honor a man whose courage and determination paved the way for so many.

The highlight of the evening — and the perfect closing to our 434 Reunion — is our Sunday Night Banquet. This year’s banquet colors are:

• Beautiful décor and a warm atmosphere

• Laughter, memories, and moments you’ll carry home with you

• A final chance to embrace, connect, and celebrate before we part ways

The banquet is our time to honor our past, celebrate our present, and look forward to the future we continue to build together.
