Reunion Weekend
Save the Date for Reunion Weekend 2023
We are excited about reunion weekend in the spring–April 21-23–for the 3’s and 8’s classes. While official reunion registration will open in January, you can and should make lodging accommodations now.
Below are the official reunion hotels. There are at least three advantages to staying in a reunion hotel:
-
Stay near your classmates–it is always fun socializing at reunion hotels.
-
Receive a special “Woodberry Reunion” block rate at these hotels--be sure to mention “Woodberry Reunion” when you call.
-
Woodberry provides transportation to/from these hotels to campus on Friday and Saturday evenings. Shuttles pick up reunion attendees at these hotels for cocktails and dinner both evenings and provide return trips to hotels.
You may make your reservation online at most hotels by clicking the Direct Online Reservation Links below or by calling the hotel directly - make sure to mention you are under the Woodberry Reunion room block. Please let us know if you have any problems making a reservation.
Please make your reservation now so that these reunion blocks can be expanded.

Three Wonderful Reunion Weekends in 2021-22
Over the last two weekends in April, we welcomed more than 1,100 alumni and other guests to campus for two spectacular Reunion Weekends. We were blessed with wonderful weather that enabled everyone to enjoy Woodberry at its spring best. Highlights of the two weekends included:
A chapel service honoring Woodberry classmates who have died. You can read the sermon delivered by Headmaster Byron Hulsey '86 at this link.
The announcement during the first Reunion Weekend of three new scholarships to support tuition assistance, established by the Fiftieth Reunion classes of 1970, 1971, and 1972. See the next issue of the Woodberry Forest Magazine & Journal for more details about the class gifts.
A taste of Woodberry event featuring alumni food and drink (click here for a full list of alumni and parent products).
Five-stand shooting. Students on the skeet team, which is currently ranked No. 1 in Virginia, coached the visiting shooters.
Special Reunion Weekend beers from Lenny Boy Brewery honoring Bob Vasquez, John Reimers, and Paul Huber '68. The beers were made by Townes Mozer '06, pictured below with the faculty legends.
Last July, nearly 300 alumni returned to campus to reconnect with classmates and celebrate their fifth or tenth reunions. Friday night featured class parties at Robertson Lake and the Oval Garden of The Residence. Saturday included a moving memorial service in memory of classmates who have died, as well as a chance for alumni and their guests to explore campus before enjoying a celebratory evening gathering under a tent on Lummis Lawn.
