When Irvin Greene was growing up in Leesburg in the 70s and 80s, he and his friends referred to their hometown as “The Burg,” so, when 2018 rolled around and they wanted to bring together members of the local African American community, it seemed fit to call the group the “BURG”: Family Reunion Club. Their first reunion event took place in 2019 at Douglass Community Center with more than 500 guests.
