Reunions

It was a banner moment when the Westcott cousins gathered on the final evening of the 2024 Westcott Society Reunion in Charlotte and after some corralling, coaxing and coaching, looked at the camera and smiled for the traditional group photo. They then quickly returned to the dance floor.

Note
* At some point between the 1982 reunion in Charlottesville, Viginia, and the 1998 get-together in Killington, Vermont, the numbering of the event was reduced by one to account for the cancellation of the “Fifth Biennial Reunion” in 1941 because of World War II. (What would have been the 43rd reunion in 2020 was cancelled because of the Coronavirus pandemic.) As of July 2022, there have been 43 Westcott Society Reunions.
