2014 Friends of Freddy Convention

'Tis the 75th anniversary of Wiggins for President, and as it is also an even-numbered year, the Friends of Freddy are holding our biennial conference on November 7-9. This year, it is taking place at the lovely White Eagle Hotel in Hamilton, NY. To quote from the FoF website:
"
For our 2014 convention, we're visiting Hamilton, NY, a town that looms large in the life of Walter Brooks and his family and where, indeed, he is buried.
Additionally, it's the 75th anniversary of the publication of Wiggins for President, so we're taking that as a theme for the weekend. Details will be forthcoming.
Anyone is welcome to give a presentation. If interested, please contact convention chair Henry Cohn at main132@comcast.net .
