ABOVE: Article from the McDowell News ... Thursday, June 7, 2001
And from a Mohicanlander:
"I'm so happy to see the 2001 Gathering looks to be a rousing
success! Since I knew I wouldn't be able to go this summer, I've stayed away from the website since last fall, convincing myself it would be the best way to avoid heartache. However, especially at this time of year all of you have been in my thoughts and I couldn't stay away any longer."
Are you ready?!?
We've been innundated with questions & requests from folks trying to squeeze in at the last minute ... alas, too, we've had some cancellations ... and been tying up all the loose ends. Been QUITE the pre-Gathering Weekend around here! More on the last-minute details should be arriving in your E-Mail box shortly, if you're on our list!
A Note: Especially in light of Wes Studi's attendance, it is likely a news reporter or two may be among us at one time or another. One of their favorite questions? "Why are you here?" Get ready for that one!
The June version of the dispatch from Fort William Henry is here .. it includes a Pearl Harbor tie-in and photos from the reinterment of the remains of a soldier found on the nearby premises recently. Look it over!
OK ... I really can't believe we've passed away another year and it is almost time to Gather In The Mountains ... again. My only regret is that some of the folks who've been hanging around here for the longest of times ... folks like Vita, Bea, and Doc Mary, to name a few ... weren't able to ever attend one ...
Safe journey to those of you coming. See the rest of you in a week or so ...
Here's to a good time!
