Thanks for your post, Bev. I feel sorry for the people who have already bought tickets. I hope they are able to recover their money. I also feel sorry for the ones who have already purchased plane tickets, perhaps asked for time off work, and made other plans. I really don't know how some people can live with themselves, knowing that they have taken unfair advantage of others. They must not have a conscience.

I just checked and tickets are still being sold at The Hollywood billboard website. Advertising is on Craigslist and elsewhere. If Media Quest is really taking money for a nonexistent event, I feel bad for those who bought tickets...

WOW!!!!! Tom just made a very good point. He said, " Well, at least it doesn't effect the October event." Hopefully more people will sign up for Carolyn's event.

Here is a Copy and Pasted conversation I had with someone who answered a Message on their FB wall this morning. I also asked Mary and Ray Castro, and both confirmed it's not a real event, and she will NOT be attending.
FB Conversation started today Bev Schrader Nault 8:29am Bev Schrader Nault Friends, I am the admin for the Mary McDonough Fan Club FB page and I am getting questions about her appearance at your Dallas event in August 2015. Can you confirm her dates and locations for me? How much are tickets, and where can folks go to purchase them? Thanks! Bev Nault The Homecoming 2015 8:30am The Homecoming 2015 The Dallas event was cancelled last month due to insufficient preregistration. Refunds are being processed. Bev Schrader Nault 8:33am Bev Schrader Nault There's nothing on your FB page about the cancellation, so people are still finding you and spreading the word. You should probably make some kind of pinned announcement. The Homecoming 2015 8:33am The Homecoming 2015 Thank you! Bev Schrader Nault 8:35am Bev Schrader Nault And your registration and paypal are still active I'm tempted to contact FB because I believe this may be a scam...who are you affiliated with? Many of these people are my friends, and even if they weren't, what you are doing is wrong The Homecoming 2015 8:38am The Homecoming 2015 No tickets for this event have been processed since early May and the ticket codes are not activate. However, we will confirm that the pages and all links do not function just to be sure. Bev Schrader Nault 8:52am Bev Schrader Nault Did you ever have any commitments from the cast?
That's the last of our conversation.

Bev
I did not attend The Homecoming in February/March so I don't know what all took place. I know it was a big event and there were a lot of people there.

Friends,I've been getting questions over at the Mary McDonough Fan Club FaceBook page about this Dallas event. I have confirmed this is NOT an event and will not be happening. If you have purchased tickets, please stop credit card payments immediately and if you ever see anything posted by this same company, do NOT assume they are legitimate. That's all I can say for now. There are many people who repeatedly take advantage of the kindness and celebrity of the cast, and also take advantage of the fans as well. People have made many false statements, assumptions, and hurtful rumors over the years, and this is just the latest of many. Let's all remember that the Walton way is to be honest and open, and have each other's backs, and things are not always as they appear. FALSE!!>Homecoming 2015 Dallas from August 14-16 at the Sheraton Hotel DFW. So far Michael Learned, Ronnie Claire Edwards and Mary McDonough have made commitments to attend. Take care, Beverly Nault That information came straight from the Hollywood Billboard website and FB at the time; wow, glad I didn't try to go!

The scary thing is that they say they canceled this event in May, however it was still on the schedule of events at the Dallas Sheraton yesterday. The Billboard website wasn't updated with the cancelation until yesterday. Their Facebook page was deleted in the past 24 hrs.

I had bought tickets for the event in Virginia but was going to be unable to make it so I called them, just as a courtesy because I didn't expect a refund. I was told they could resell the tickets and t-shirt because it was going to sell out and they would refund what they could recoup. They did eventually do a partial refund but it took months and I felt more than once like I was getting the runaround. It was very frustrating. But the event in Virginia looked like it was great and I am sorry that Dallas didn't work out.

Nicolle, your profile pic is adorable and really makes me think of Princess Diana; was that intentional?

No - not intentional! My mother in law had decorated our porch with streamers and that was the only place where the photographer could get a clear shot of me without the tacky decor!
