This event is a special celebration for Camp TAW Alumnae and we hope to host as many attendees as possible. We encourage other family members and children to enjoy and take advantage of the many activities available in the area while you are reconnecting with your TAW family.
How do I register?
Please follow this LINK to REGISTER and make your payment.
Can I stay at Camp?
Unfortunately, at the end of October the weather can be quite cold in our area and our (open-air) cabins will be closed for the season. There are a number of places to stay in Hendersonville and the surrounding areas. For your convenience, we have reserved a block of rooms at the Holiday Inn Express & Suites (107 Upward Crossing Drive, Flat Rock, NC) for the evening of Saturday, October 28 - Sunday, Oct 29.
If you wish to book a room at the special group rate we’ve negotiated on your behalf, please visit this link to the Holiday Inn Express & Suites website or call 1-877-666-3243 before 09/28/2023 as space is limited. Additional options for places to stay or things to do locally may be found on OUR website under the “Enrolled Families” tab, please see Getting from here to there.
What is the cost?
The cost for attending the 90th Reunion is $30 per person. This non-refundable fee covers all celebration expenses including activities, afternoon refreshments, dinner, drinks, dessert and treats.
What is the cancellation policy?
We hope no one will have to cancel, but we understand that sometimes life happens. If you do need to cancel, your registration fee will be donated along with any other remaining funds from the event towards the annual Camp fundraiser.
What do I need to bring?
Octoberrrrr can be chilly! That being said, we will still plan for a beautiful day full of activities, food, fun and fellowship at Camp. We’ll have the fires burning, but plan to dress for the outdoors (layers) and wear comfortable shoes for exploring camp and participating in activities. Plan to bring whatever YOU need to be comfortable.
Suggestions include: a folding camp chair that you can carry along with you as you enjoy the different areas of Camp, a small lightweight blanket, a flashlight for when the sun goes down, etc.
Parking
All attendees will park up in the soccer field. We will have shuttles running into Camp for those that need assistance from the parking area.
Additional questions?
We will be sending a reminder email to attendees with additional information about the day as we near the celebration, so please be sure that we have your best email address when you register. If you have additional questions, please contact Catherine at
Teamwork
Are you in touch with your old Cabin Mates…Tribe Members…Fellow CIT’s?
