NICKERSON FAMILY ASSOCIATION REUNION
September 7, 8, 9, 2012

As we look forward to Reunion 2012, the Board of Directors has chosen to return to our roots and head back to Chatham to be a part of the festive year long 300th Anniversary celebration of Chatham's incorporation and to honor William Nickerson's 375th Anniversary of his arrival in America. What better way to kick off the weekend than to gather at the Trap Dock at Stage Harbor where cousin, Shareen Davis, will host our Friday evening welcome party. Fresh seafood and fishing lore will highlight the evening along with specialty 300th beer and wine.

Saturday morning we'll gather for our annual meeting at the First Congregational Church founded by William Nickerson. Our special guest speaker will be Professor Robert Allison of Suffolk University. A vast array of optional activities will be available in the afternoon for Reunion goers to experience the charms of Chatham. By late afternoon we'll make our way over to the grounds of the Nickerson House, site of the original homestead, where there will be live music, an old fashioned outdoor pig roast plus colonial delicacies prepared by our resident open hearth cooking expert, Maureen Leavenworth. A very special surprise will be part of this festive evening.

Sunday afternoon we'll have a delicious box lunch at the Chatham Community Center where Mark Nickerson and his fellow travelers will share with us the highlights of their trip to Norwich, England, home of founder, William Nickerson.

Be sure to mark your calendars for September 7th-9th and plan to join us for a truly unique and festive anniversary celebration. More details will follow in the Spring Newsletter.
