Annual Family Reunion
Saturday, July 25, 2026 · Heimwald Park, York County, Pennsylvania
Every summer, the descendants of Casper Glattfelder gather on the hillside overlooking the very land he farmed — a tradition the Association has kept up nearly every year since 1906.
The Next Reunion Starts In
A Family Tradition Since 1906
One hillside, one family, every summer.
When Dr. Noah Miller Glatfelter published the family genealogy in 1901, it brought relatives out of the woodwork — and in 1906 they organized the Casper Glattfelder Association of America and held the first reunion. More than a century later, the gathering still happens at Heimwald Park in York County, the same corner of Pennsylvania where Casper settled after his 1743 voyage from Switzerland.
