This just saw this announced on Facebook. It looks like an interesting event if you live in the area of the Will Geer Theatricum Botanicum. A Waltons Weekend - August 7-9"Join Walton Family cast members for a 3 day weekend of tribute and reminiscence of their long-running hit TV series The Waltons. A weekend not to be missed!"

It all looks like fun but the bus trip to the Waltons set looks like the most fun to me. I would love to be able to see the house and barn, etc.

I've done that tour twice, in 2007 and 2012 at the fan club reunions. It is a lot of fun.
This entire event is very expensive. Even if I lived there, I probably wouldn't be able to go. It would be nice if some forum members could attend, though, and give us a report about it.

It looks like a lot of fun though. I hope whoever goes has a great time. |

I would so love to go but, alas, too far and too expensive! Hopefully, someone will go and share pictures!  |

It looks like $300 for the Friday dinner, $60 for the Saturday gathering, and $100 for the bus trip, which comes to $460/person. I think the $700 VIP ticket is optional. I could be wrong about that though. |

I could be wrong about that though. That sounds better. It did seem very expensive! Will have to look at it again (not that I will be able to go). |

I read somewhere (can't remember where) that the extra money raised from this trip goes to the Will Geer Theatre.
