Star_Swirl_Chipboard.pngUnderstanding Our Theme

I Am Because We Are


I Am Because We Are (Ubuntu) is an African philosophy that focuses on peoples allegiances andrelations with each other.

We really cannot separate ourselves from each other. We cannot see our actions as separate fromthe impact on each other. God designed it this way - we can see this in Gods promise to Abraham I will make you a great nation; I will bless you and make your name great; and you shall be a

blessing. I will bless those who bless you, and I will curse him who curses you;and in you all the familiesof the earth shall be blessed. We must understand that no person is an island andGod wants us toget this and to take action on it. Its built right into the fabric of this world and in the fabric of theRoss family.

Through conversations with our Elders, we hear about the determination of Charley Ross to be a landowner and thereby, leave an inheritance for his children. This inheritance goesfar beyond land.Each of us has inherited a love of God and family, determination to fulfill our

destinies and therebyshape future generations of Ross families.

Catfish Time

Friday, July 11, 2008 ~ 7:30-10:30

Oberlin Inn Patio

When taking the pilgrimage from Ohio to Mississippi, most of uslooked forward to that first taste of Mississippi catfish! We oftenheard stories about the catfish houses and were even fortunate totaste crispy fried catfish in the homes of our Elders from Mississippi.Emmett and Hallie were known to fry up catfish and serve it to thefamily, hot out of the skillet.

On a trip to Mississippi, with her father, Laurence and hersister Windy, Lori Ross was fascinated by the love of catfishevidenced all throughout her stay. Upon hearing her poem atthe 2007 reunion, we knew that we had to have Catfish Time this year.

Did You Know?

Catfish seem to be a popular school, from farm raised to wild and free. The onlyplace this fresh waterspecies shuns is Antarctica. Maybe the cold drives them away? Contrary to all the cartoons youveseen as a child, Catfish do not have fur. In fact, as of 2005, all 37 families are scale-less as well. The,over 2,000 known species are named for the whiskers" (a.k.a. barbells") around their mouths.

Catfish have become such a symbol of American summertime fun and fishermans talltales thatPresident Reagan declared June 25th as National Catfish Day. This proclamation was made in 1987and has been revered at campfire celebrations ever since. There is not a lake orfishing hole in theUnited States that does not have some sort of legend about the oldest, biggest catfish that has everlived swimming in these waters."

Catfish can range in size from the tiniest parasite, known toenter the urinary tract of an unsuspecting wader, to arecord 646 pounds caught in Northern Thailand. Researchers

speculate that these vast fish can get a lot bigger, as manyspecies live in developing countries where they have notbeen studied thoroughly.

We hope that you enjoy the catfishand enjoy Loris poem!

long-panel-fish.gifCatfish Clan

By Lori Ross

Remember when we drove so far

just us three in a big black car.

And as the road stretched far and wide,

the car seat leather stuck to our hides.

We wanted to smell that Mississippi air

So, why were we at the Kentucky Fair?

The cop at the gate said take I-75

So, we turned around and were ready to ride.

So, I said to Windy, you take the wheel

but by a Demon Driver her spot was filled.

But me and Pops, we played it cool.

And at the restaurant checked our pants for stool

We made it safe enough: never fear.

The sun was hot and the skies were clear.

But no, my story is not done

the adventure has just begun.

Oh, we took a trip to Piney Woods

where the history was great, the grounds were wood.

But, oh those pigs did not smell good.

Then into Ross Town we did venture

these people eat catfish for lunch and dinner.

It was a sight to see Uncle Willie.s farm

and Mom.s and Pop.s Old Almamater

then we bounced on down to Biloxi beach

where the sand was so white, I thought I.d been bleached.

Our adventure was starting to come to an end.



We were all kind of sad cause we made a few friends.

But we hitched our ride and loaded our sacks

kissed all good-bye and traveled back.

We made it back in record time

where the wind is cool and the sun is not so kind.

So all in all, it was a great vacation

traveling over some of this nation.

But I gotta go, yeah I gotta run,

just had to tell you bout all that fun

Yeah,Pops is the guy, oh he.s the man

the number one honcho of the catfish clan!
