Miller's Ale House
1471 Rockville Pike
Rockville, MD 20852
(https://millersalehouse.com/locations/rockville/).
Miller’s will provide us with a designated area to mingle and you will be able to order food and drinks on a pay-as-you-go basis or on your own tab. There will be no registration fee for this event since it will be very casual with no expenses to the Reunion Committee for room rental or catering.
We plan to begin seting up a few WJ decorations between 4 and 5 pm. We invite folks to show up around 5 pm but of course if you want to meet some friends there earlier or arrive later you are free to do that also. Then stay until your bedtime or the fat lady sings, whichever comes first.
Save the date and start contacting your friends to arrange get-togethers for Saturday evening and possibly Friday night or Sunday as well (on your own, nothing official is being planned at this time).
Hope to see you in October,
The Reunion Committee: Bill Howland, Jan Ryan, Scott Stewart, Brad Watkins
