I am definately going to the reunion and will send Carolyn my contact information. It will be my first reunion and I am really looking forward to meeting everyone and hearing more stories about the last one. I might see Schuyler before Oct. or I might save it for the reunion. Guess I better make my hotel reservation soon. I'm going alone, but will probably be charged for a double, so if anyone wants to split the cost let me know.

Do you have to stay at the hotel to go or can you just come because I live in Maryland and I wouldn't have to drive to far... I hope you don't have to stay at the hotel because I know I can't afford it haha

No you don't have to stay at the hotel, but the banquet is at night, so it would be a long drive back home for you in the middle of the night if you don't stay. Lynchburg is in the southern part of Virginia. Also, you will need to let Carolyn Grinnell know that you are interested in coming so she can send you the necessary info. She hasn't sent it out yet that I know of. You can email her at thewaltonsinternationalfanclub@gmail.com

That's true, but she could stop in Schuyler on her way down to Lynchburg. Still, I recommend spending the night if you possibly can. Maybe you could start putting money away for the trip right now.

jbwl.... I remember checking around for different lodging ideas a couple of years ago.... because I wanted to stay for 5-7 days and preferred a rustic cabin or cottage..... There's not much around that would be less expensive than the deal Carolyn gets.... If you're a camper, you could consider the local KOA....
Driving a good 4-5 hours after a banquet is tough.... but, hey, if you're on your own, catching some zzzzzz's in your car is also a possibility !!!

Yeah, I'm going to start Savin up for it now, I am going to be in my third semester of college so I'm gonna see if my family can help me save up money. I babysit almost everyday for my cousins but I never asked to be paid and I work on the farm with my grandfather and I don't ask to be paid so I've got to work hard to get some money haha
I would love to see the museum I realized that it was pretty close

That sounds like something a Walton would do. If you explain to them that you would like to save up some money for the Waltons Reunion, maybe they would start paying you something, whatever they can afford. I hope you get to come.

Thank you very much, my family always comes first to me. I've asked my grandfather if he could come with me and he said he would see if he was working. My mom already said I couldn't go by myself if I did get the money but I might figure out a way to change her mind. I think that I've got an idea haha
