Hello,
Question: I have seacrhed the discussions and have not seen any thoughts on the following-is there any transporation available for attendees going to the Saturday event (excluding the Warner Bros. Studio visit-which I understand will be busing) between the host hotel and theater and if not does anyone know the best mod of transportation. I understand car rental is always an option. Thoughts? Thank you, Eric

yeah thats an interesting question emf673 as we too need to get from the holiday inn to the event on the saturday. We won't be hiring a car to get around, so I have been scanning a few sites to try and find out prices etc but yes if there was a bus or something Ray that would be great

jeeeprose, the Friday night event is the International Fan Club Reunion Dinner. It is in Burbank. An intimate event with lots of guests and pics and autograph opportunities. It will likely also include a tour of the Waltons set.
The Saturday night event (the one this thread is about) is a fundraiser for the school that Kami (Elizabeth) is principal of. It's in LA. This is a celebration with a program and a host and everything, with a VIP dinner afterwards. This one has a HUGE guest list - pretty much everyone who is still living that has EVER been on The Waltons has been invited.
I imagine most folks are going to both. I sure am!

I'm a new member but an old fan of the Walton's. Enjoy watching them everyday here in the Smoky Mountains on INSP and Hallmark Channel. Thanks to all the cast and crew that have brought so many memories back at a time when we need to see the good ole' days when life was so simple and beautiful and innocent.

i really wanna go but i live in England and i will have school unfourtunately i wish they put it on TV. :-( I'd love to go but it's to far to travel from VA. I didn't get to attend the last reunion that was in Schyler b/c I was recovering from back sugery, so maybe next time but I know it won't be as big as this one. I too wish a network would at least record it & show later if it can't be done live.
