QUESTION:
|
Why do you call it the Heritage Reunion?
|
|
ANSWER:
|
When talking to visitors we frequently hear people say, "I saw so and so that I haven't seen in years." That is why we call it a reunion. The heritage part comes because we concentrate on our heritage from the turn of the Twentieth Century.
