The reunion for 2017 will be held at the Timbers restaurant in Ruther Glen, Caroline County, VA. Plans at present are for a meet and greet at the restaurant from 11am on, followed by lunch ($15) around noon, a short meeting, and a trip to see Woodpecker, a house built by Samuel I around 1750, and continuously occupied since then. Our reunion chair is Randy Newkirk; he asks that anyone who might need a wheelchair for the trip to Woodpecker, let him know. Click for Travel information on the 2017 Reunion Page under the Members tab.
Woodpecker is now the site of a very popular Equestrian Farm, this is very appropriate as Caroline County, as well as the revolutionary home of many Haweses, is the birthplace of Secretariat, regarded by many as one of the greatest horses in American racing history.
