2019
Hotels
We have set the DC reunion meeting for Sept 12,13,14,&15, 2019 at the Kentucky State University, Harold R. Benson Ag building, 1525 Mills Ln, Frankfort, KY 40601. Cousins: save the date on your calendar and start travel plans! Janice Cozine, our treasurer, says she thinks this place will be even better for us than the KY History Center. We hope to have a really big crowd to show it off!
Sunday September 15 we will have worship again at the Old Mud Meetinghouse at Harrodsburg. Charlie and his team, Janice and Eddie Cozine, King and Sharon Cole, and Tamara Fulkerson will continue to be hard at work on this project.
I have contacted several hotels and campgrounds to give you a little variety on where to stay during our weekend event.
Most are right off I-64 at exit 53B for your convenience and we still have the option to stay at The Capital Plaza Hotel that we have used in the past, approx. 4.5 miles farther into town.
**I am not advertising/recommending any of these hotels. I’m only sending info for you to research and choose for yourself.

You can see The Hampton Inn, The Holiday Inn Express & the Days Inn from the I-64 exit 53B
The Capital Plaza Hotel is about 4.5 miles past these 3 hotels. The Benson farm is about 4.5 miles at the I-64 exit going the other direction.
The 3 hotels would be about 4.5 miles to the farm and the Capital Plaza would be about 9 miles to the farm. We liked the Plaza Hotel and it had a better price so I blocked a few rooms there.
Looking forward to September, 2019
