Bicentenial Notes

In 1994 the Woodley Society was created. Since that time it has evolved into an association of students, faculty, graduates, parents, and friends which has carried on primary research at a number of archives and libraries in the Washington area and beyond, created a web site, joined the Historic House Museum Consortium of Washington, DC, and hosted a number of Woodley related receptions, most notably the prize winning 2003 bicentennial celebration. In the process, a dozen articles have been written for the Maret Magazine. One long-term goal of the Woodley society is to publish a book that traces the history of this remarkable house and its inhabitants. .
