Provisions for family dinner for
more than a hundred members of
the Cody clan are being made by
the local committee for the 1969
Cody Family Reunion August 23
and 24 in Cody, Wyoming. In ad
dition to visiting members of the
International Cody Family Associ

Expected to Draw Attendance
Richard I. Frost, curator of the
Buffalo Bill Museum, and Fred
Garlow, grandson of Col. William
F. "Buffalo Bill" Cody, are mem
bers of the local committee on ar
rangements.
The Cody Auditorium clubroom
has been reserved for the Saturday
night family dinner, which will be
catered by a local firm. The price
of $4.00 per plate will include tax
and gratuities, and children's plates
will be available, Frost states.
Plans call for reunion registrants
to be guests of the museum during
Saturday afternoon.
Reservations should be made
directly with the motel of your
choice; however, reservations for
the family dinner and the Sunday

Expressing hope that the 1969 re
union at Cody, Wyoming, will be
outstanding from a standpoint of
attendance, President Evon Cody
of Hanford, California, extended a
welcome "to all friends of the
West."
The reunion will also serve to
spotlight the newly opened Buffalo
Bill Historical Center which em
braces the Whitney Gallery of
Western Art as well as the Buffalo
Bill museum and the Plains Indian
museum.
"We want to make it clear that
all persons interested in the life
and times of Col. Cody will be
most welcome at our meeting."
"I hope that the pilgrimage from
Davenport to Cody by way of Le
Claire, Leavenworth, and North
Platte will bring additional indi
viduals into participation in our
family fellowship," Evon says.
It will be the family's first na
tional get-together since 1966.
More interest has been expressed
from a wider geographical area
than has been the case of any re
union in recent years, Evon reports.
