ACE is the place for the Class of 1970
Posted by: Lenore in Thurmond, Reunions, New River Gorge Bridge, Cabins on Apr 10, 2009
For the past several years, some classmates of mine from Virginia High School in Bristol, VA have been coming to ACE for what we call our mini reunions. We were all members of the class of 1970 - yes, we're old!
ACE is a great place for all your outdoor activities, including Whitewater, but it's also a great place for friends to get together. With ACE's Deluxe Chalets, Cozy Cabins and other lodging options, it's easy to organize a party or reunion. It's a great location for people coming from different states, and allows everyone to have privacy in their own cabin or share one of our larger units.
The reunions with my classmates have really allowed us to reconnect after many years,...
and share the events of our lives with each other. It's nothing fancy - we just hang out, give everyone the scenic tour driving under the New River Gorge Bridge, might take a drive to Thurmond, eat, drink, laugh and promise to do it again the next year. One of the gang is even a descendant of the Thurmonds of Thurmond!
The Concho overlook is always a big hit with everyone. Of the many beautiful views I've been fortunate enough to see, I must say Concho ranks right up there with the best, and it's just a short walk or drive from the ACE Adventure Resort.
Did we do it again this year? You betcha! If you were around the weekend of April 3, 4 and 5, you just may have seen some old schoolmates having the time of their lives.
When's the last time you went to a school reunion? How about a family reunion? What kind of place do you look for when a big group needs to get together? Let us know your ideas ...
