2008 Rice Reunion

Plan now to attend the year 2008 reunion on September 19th and 20th at Sudbury, MA. We will meet again at the Clarion Carriage House Inn. Your Board of Directors is now planning the details!

After the always-popular annual bus tour, which this year is centered around Wayland and Sudbury sites of interest, our Friday night dinner will be at the world-famous Wayside Inn, immortalized in "Tales of a Wayside Inn" by Longfellow, in the ballroom upstairs. Dinner will feature quintessential New England dishes.

Our Saturday reunion and annual meeting will be at the Clarion Hotel, and, since a majority last year asked for a lighter meal, we will have soups, salad, sandwiches, and a sumptuous assortment of desserts from the same folks who catered last year's delicious lunch!

Our speaker will be Dr. K. David Goss, a professor of history at Gordon College. He has just written a book on witchcraft in the colonies, and will be speaking on the topic of his current book-in-progress, which is about Puritan family life. I think it will be fascinating to hear about how our Rice families actually lived-this should help us put flesh on the bones of our research!

More info and sign up sheets will be in our summer newsletter-hope to see you at the reunion-it's going to be a great one!
