On Sunday, November 10th, the Mosby Heritage Area Association is hosting Middleburg Remembers the Kennedys from 2:00-4:00pm at the Sheila C. Johnson Performing Arts Center at the Hill School, 130 S. Madison Street, Middleburg, Virginia 20117.

The event will offer an intimate glimpse into the time the Kennedy family spent in Middleburg, on the 50th anniversary weekend of their last visit together to Middleburg.

Middleburg Remembers the Kennedys will be a touching event for many, especially those who remember attending Mass with the Kennedys, those who rode with Jackie and the children, those who bumped into Jackie at the feed store, and simply those who admire the Kennedys.

The nation will be bracing for the 50th anniversary of the assassination twelve days after this event, but on November 10th, the Mosby Heritage Area Association strives to remember the happy times of Camelot with the young, vibrant family we called our neighbors.

The event will open with Don Woodruff, Hill School history teacher and Kennedy campaign worker, who will offer an introduction to JFK's presidency. Next, local author and historian, Eugene Scheel, will discuss the Kennedy presence in 1960s Middleburg.

Finishing the discussion will be Howard Allen, the photographer who captured many candid moments of Mrs. Kennedy and the children on horseback at their homes in Middleburg. Mr. Allen has just released a book, Unforgotten Times, about his time with the Kennedys. The book shows never-before-released photographs of the Kennedys taken here in Hunt Country and it will be available for signing and purchase on November 10th.

Also contributing to the event will be Taylor Shapiro, reporter for the Washington Post, whose mother, Vicky Moon, authored the book The Private Passion of Jackie Kennedy Onassis: Portrait of a Rider.

To close, the speakers will engage in an intimate discussion, with personal memories of the Kennedy family while they were here in Middleburg.

Tickets are available at 540-687-6681 or www.mosbyheritagearea.org for $30 for MHAA members and $40 for non-members.
