The Burstall Homecoming Executive Committee has made the difficult decision to defer the Homecoming Celebration from July 2021 to July 2022 (July 1st, 2nd & 3rd 2022) due to the uncertainty of being able to host or adequately prepare & fundraise for the initial event planned for next year.
We thank you for your understanding and look forward to seeing everyone at our Community’s 101st anniversary!
