The Juneteenth Homecoming Celebration at Point State Park included a four day schedule of events featuring musical performances, dancing, food and vendors selling art and goods. On Sunday, attendees of the Homecoming Celebration enjoyed a performance from American singer Erica Campbell, as well as other family activities.
