I have always enjoyed my time at the reunions and have met many wonderful people as well!

Since Carolyn's Reunions appear to be ending, I know that my only participation regarding The Waltons will be on this Forum, and I'm hoping Brenda keeps this going as long as she can or wants to.

Yes, here we can stay in touch, but it won’t be the same without the fan club reunions. Perhaps someone else will step up to the plate and organize them. Carolyn’s meetings are different than other events. More family like, I would say.😊

Carolyn’s meetings are different than other events. More family like, I would say.😊 I went to one of Carolyn's and one arranged by someone else. I preferred Carolyn’s. More intimate, less frantic. While I appreciated getting to "meet" a lot of the cast--as brief as it was--waiting on lines for hours on end was really difficult, physically. I paid for one photo I never got because I just couldn't stand any longer. The only reason I could even make it to dinner is because I had gotten a nice room with a jacuzzi and soaked in it for almost an hour. I decided if I ever went back, it would only be for Carolyn's.

Yes, I was there too. To this day I am sorry that I didn’t meet you there, Patriciaanne. I felt frantic the whole time. I was stressed out.

And then there was a freakish snowstorm on my way back to PA!

Carolyn was doing the reunions first, and with so much love. It makes me sad that more of the cast isn't attending this year, to celebrate her devotion. But I actually told a Walton friend a couple of weeks ago that it isn't about the celebs attending, it's about seeing my friends and being a part of this family I found six years ago. These people show me more love than some people I've known my entire life. For that, I am ever grateful to our lovely Carolyn and Brenda.

You're absolutely right, Heather. I loved attending the Reunions year after year just to see all of the friends that I had made the previous year. It was also fun cuz each year I'd make new friends cuz new people would pop up. It's just like being a member of this Forum. Friendships are constantly being made with the continual addition of new members. Hopefully, in the future many of us will see each other again and celebrate the show and our friendships.
