Can y'all tell me a little about the reunions?

[clb458]

Do a lot of people attend? Is it an all-day affair? I am new here and don't really "know" anyone yet, but I am interested in attending maybe. I am a little shy and sometimes fear of the unknown keeps me from getting out there and having fun.

Nothing to be afraid of at the reunions. I have been the last three years. It starts on Friday evening with an autograph and kind of a meet and greet thing at the hotel. On Saturday morning they use to go to Schyler, VA to the Hamner homeplace and museum and country store. I heard they were going to do something different this year but you could still drive out to Schyler if you wanted to anyway. The banquet dinner is Saturday night and it is kind of dressed up. Otherwise the cast members that are there just kind of mingle with the crowd and dress casually. There are usually a little over 100 people that attend. After everyone is finished eating at the dinner, Carolyn usually has some other events like a cast member will speak, an auction, etc. and you can still get autographs there too. Last till around 10 PM.

I attended last year's along with David and had an absolute BLAST!!! ;D It's such a great time for new and long time fans to get together and talk and get to meet some of the cast.

I'm planning on attenind this year's reunion and looking forward to it. I made friends with a lot of new people at the reunion and it's great to be able to put names with the user names on here. ;D

Hope you're able to make it this year dfnmeows44!!
