Looking forward to seeing all my Forum Friends again in October! And hopefully meeting some new Forum Friends! We promise a memorable weekend and I'm looking forward to a special slice of PIE! ;-) Mam, I've tried adding you on Facebook to follow Waltons' news. I didn't know there was such a following and love the show.

Anyone who wants to stay updated about the reunion should follow Carolyn Grinnell on Facebook. She doesn't visit the forum often, but she does keep her Facebook updated. I usually try to post her updates here on the forum, but I have a lot going on in my life right now, and I don't always get around to it. I appreciate nedandres for starting this thread after seeing Carolyn's Facebook post. Facebook is also a good way to keep up with the cast members and to be informed about other Waltons events. Several cast members have Facebook pages you can join, and there are several Waltons fan groups on Facebook. That's how I usually keep up with everything that's going on. Sometime when I have time I'll try to post links to some of the Facebook groups and cast members' pages. I've tried adding Ms. Carolyn. Where can I find the actors' pages on facebook?

indyanna130 , the reunion is set for October 14-15 at the Kirkley Hotel in Lynchburg, Virginia. You can go ahead and make reservations and mention you're with the Waltons fan club so you'll get the special rate. Carolyn recently said she is working on a letter with more details which she hopes to mail out soon. Try to contact her on Facebook and let her know you're interested so she can send you a letter too.

Yes the reunion is done every year but sometimes it was held in California. Usually actresses and/or actors from the show attend. On the Saturday of the reunion, when it is held in Virginia, everyone heads up to Schuyler to visit Earl Hamner's home town. It is really fun and has always been a beautiful drive in the fall. We also visit the Walton museum.

Then everyone does many other things. Lots of time to socialize, go out to eat with other Walton friends, see local things of interest, visit the Hamner home and Walton's museum. A really nice weekend!

That is so cool! How many people will bring baseball gloves or baseballs for him to sign? I also like the Christmas theme. Carolyn has done that in the past and it is always so beautiful!
