"Home" Renovations Almost Complete - Introducing our NEW Website

Introduction to the "home renovations" being made to our website. Schedule announced for the 2015 Spiker Reunion

“Home” Renovations Almost Complete

You know how it is…home renovations always cost more - and take longer to finish - than we estimate. So I am happy to say that the structural improvements at the Spiker Family Gathering Place are almost complete. Pretty much all that remains to be done is to add a few decorative touches such as photos, paintings, scrapbooks, etc. If you have any treasures you think would “spruce up the place a bit,” be sure to bring them over when you stop by. Hope to see you soon. ~Bobbi
