I would like to know how you register for the 2014 Reunion in Virginia--My hubie and I want to go--I already made my reservation at the hotel!!
jeeeprose - Carolyn Grinnell usually announces in June/July that if you are interested in attending the reunion to let her know. You email her, so she can email the forms back to you (print them out yourself, fill out and enclose check to reserve your spot at the dinner - this saves postage for her) or you email her your current address and ask her to mail you the forms (because you have no way of printing them out).
The deadline to get the forms and money back to her is usually sometime in August. My advice is to get your forms and money in as soon as possible because she usually can only accept so many reservations (I want to say 200). You never know if it will sell out and you will be left out in the cold or if the quota will not be filled for the year. I personally don't like to take chances, so I get my forms and money in ASAP.
If you do attend and you recognize any of us forum members in attendance (by our profile pictures), please come up and introduce yourself. I enjoy meeting forum members. It's always nice putting a face to a name. I think you attended the California reunion in 2012 and I didn't get to meet you there. So I would definitely like to meet you at this one.

Gee.... I had imagined that attendees wore appropriate names tags, with BOTH their names !!
Something to think about.... it would be such an easy thing to do.... and ensure that all members were "introduced" .... even spouses or friends could have tags that say something like "Theresa -- Mrs. dowsee/Frank" for instance, or something -- members could decide what they want the tags to say.....

I made our hotel reservations several weeks ago and am really looking forward to attending! This will be our first time to come to the Virginia event and I am very excited! Kimberly, I appreciate your information as to how it all works, being a first-timer. Thank you! Carolyn posted tonight on her Facebook page that a lot of fans have already booked their rooms. She said she is currently very busy getting plans confirmed so she can do a mail out soon. Kimberly and jeeeprose....I am looking forward to meeting both of you ....and hopefully many others from the forum, too!

That sounds heavenly. I really want to go with all my heart. I mentioned it to my husband last night, but I don't know if it will work out or not yet. I reckon, I'll just keep bringing it up. haha

I would really like to go too, one day. I really, really would.
(Frank double checks the thread...where did I commit to going to? Oh yeah, Walton's reunion...OK phew...that turned out OK)
