Convention weekend in Dallas: the program
A fundraising gala, a family picnic, an all-white day and a Go Texan night: a look at our 2026 convention weekend.
This program was shared ahead of the June 2026 convention in Dallas. A recap with photos is coming soon.
Members, families and friends from across the country came together in Dallas for a weekend of fellowship, celebration and fundraising for Kumba. Here’s what was on the program.
Fundraising gala
The highlight of the weekend: our fundraising gala on Saturday, June 6 at the Embassy Suites, 13131 N Central Expy, Dallas, TX 75243, with music by DJ Mola. Table sponsorships and ticket sales supported Operation Road to $100,000.
Family picnic
An afternoon outdoors in Carrollton, Texas, with food, games and time to catch up. Dress code: any KUPEXSA T-shirt with blue or white jeans.
All-white day
Dress code: an all-white outfit with the KUPEXSA-USA blue scarf, matched with a cowboy hat in black, brown or white. Go Texan, of course!
Go Texan night
A night dedicated to Kupexanos and their spouses or significant others, with dinner catered by a Kupexsan, Lucy Mbullah (Class of 2000), and the KUPEXSA Got Talent show. Who would win: the Supremes, the Texan Girl line dance, the Sopranos or the traditional dance?
