      <image:title>experiences - The Dunnington Mansion Historical &amp;amp; Photography Tour</image:title>
      <image:caption>Originally known as the Poplar Hill Plantation, the current beautifully abandoned Dunnington Mansion was actually a very modest four room home before it was acquired by Captain John Knight, who eventually passed it down to his daughter India and her tobacco tycoon husband, Walter Grey Dunnington. A subsequent massive renovation by the Dunningtons expanded the square footage of the house to 8500, including 14 rooms. Currently abandoned for over two decades, the mansion now sits alone by herself, in a beautiful state of decay and in search of a new owner. Join us on April 25th for a historical tour of this iconic mansion. Take as many pictures as you want along the way! THIS IS A NON-REFUNDABLE TICKET WITH NO REQUEST EXCEPTIONS. IF THE EVENT IS CANCELED DUE TO WEATHER, FULL REFUNDS WILL BE ISSUED. COMMONLY ASKED QUESTIONS What type of experience should I expect during this event with the purchase of a General Admission ticket? The ticket includes a 25 minute narrated historical tour of the property and a full two hour window to explore at your leisure. What kind of light should I expect for photography? We cannot guarantee the absence of exterior shadows given a sunny day. . A tripod is a MUST for all DSLR users for the interior images, especially on the first floor, which now had boarded windows. Will I get to shoot the inside of the mansion? For the most part. Almost all of the rooms are structurally sound and accessible with a few exceptions. Those rooms will be cordoned off and access to them will be strictly prohibited for safety reasons. A tripod is A MUST for photographers as the light in the mansion can get low in the late afternoon. I am less interested in the history of the property and more interested in just photographing it. Is this the tour for me? Yes. You are not obligated to participate in the historical portion of the event. There is plenty of time to photograph the exterior and interior of the mansion. What is your refund policy? This is a NON-REFUNDABLE TICKET with no exceptions. If you are unable to make the event due to ANY CIRCUMSTANCE, the money you paid for your ticket(s) will be donated to the Dunnington Mansion Foundation . What should I bring to the event? Please check the weather forecast for Farmville, Va. before your departure and make sure to dress accordingly. .A tripod is a must for interior DSLR shots. DO NOT WEAR NICE SHOES. Can you offer me a recommendation on local restaurants for lunch? There are plenty of local and tasty eateries in Farmville.The four that I recommend include Macado's, Charley's Waterfront Cafe, the North Street Press Club and The Fishin' Pig. Will you conduct the event in bad weather? We reserve the right to cancel the program in the event of bad weather. Should a cancellation occur, a full refund will be offered and notifications will be sent no later than 2 days before the event so our guests can cancel hotel reservations without penalty.

      <image:title>experiences - The Presidents Heads - LABOR DAY WEEKEND</image:title>
      <image:caption>Several remnants from the original tourist attraction that was open from 2004-2010 will be on display during the Labor Day weekend as accompaniments to the 42 sculptures that have become an international attraction. The mementos that will be on display include several of the original placards, park signage, vintage Park images and much more. In addition to opportunities to take pictures of the sculptures, interesting facts and stories will be shared amongst our guests throughout the day. Presidential trivia with PRIZES will be held during several sessions. CBS Sunday Morning segment on the Presidents Heads TICKETS ARE LIMITED FAQ's What exactly is this place? When the original outdoor museum in Williamsburg called "Presidents Park" closed in 2010, the sculptures were eventually salvaged and moved to the property where they sit now. This is NOT the original park rather the exact sculptures that once resided in it. Are you open all the time to visit the Heads? No. Pre-ticketed events for public access are held 8 times per year, almost always on weekends ( holidays may be the exception) . Occasionally, photo workshops are also held. Public access outside of these dates is not permitted as the property doubles as a busy industrial recycling site that is operational, and off limits to pedestrians, for most days of the year. Can I visit the Heads outside of a guided tour or Photo Workshop? Unfortunately not. Where will this event be held? At the location of the Presidents Heads, which is at 8212 Croaker Rd. in Williamsburg, Va. The name of the business is Hampton Roads Materials. Parking instructions will be sent with the guest e-mail that is distributed a few days prior to the event. Why is there a difference in the ticket prices? The morning passes are less expensive than the afternoon passes because, in the event of a sunny day, the Heads are back lit in the morning, which could be problematic for photographers. The Heads become front lit by 1PM. How and when will I be notified of the specifics and logisitics of the program? An e-mail will be sent to the address used to register, beginning about a week before the event. This will cover all of the specifics you will want and need to know.

      <image:title>experiences - The Dunnington Mansion Historical &amp;amp; Photography Tour</image:title>
      <image:caption>Originally known as the Poplar Hill Plantation, the current beautifully abandoned Dunnington Mansion was actually a very modest four room home before it was acquired by Captain John Knight, who eventually passed it down to his daughter India and her tobacco tycoon husband, Walter Grey Dunnington. A subsequent massive renovation by the Dunningtons expanded the square footage of the house to 8500, including 14 rooms. Currently abandoned for over two decades, the mansion now sits alone by herself, in a beautiful state of decay and in search of a new owner. Join us on June 15th for a historical tour of this iconic mansion. Take as many pictures as you want along the way! THIS IS A NON-REFUNDABLE TICKET WITH NO REQUEST EXCEPTIONS. IF THE EVENT IS CANCELED DUE TO WEATHER, FULL REFUNDS WILL BE ISSUED. COMMONLY ASKED QUESTIONS What type of experience should I expect during this event with the purchase of a General Admission ticket? The ticket includes a 25 minute narrated historical tour of the property and a full two hour window to explore at your leisure. What kind of light should I expect for photography? We cannot guarantee the absence of exterior shadows given a sunny day. The event was scheduled in the afternoon so photogs could take advantage of the softer light. . A tripod is a MUST for all DSLR users for the interior images, especially on the first floor, which now had boarded windows. Will I get to shoot the inside of the mansion? For the most part.

      <image:title>experiences - The Dunnington Mansion Historical &amp;amp; Photography Tour</image:title>
      <image:caption>Originally known as the Poplar Hill Plantation, the current beautifully abandoned Dunnington Mansion was actually a very modest four room home before it was acquired by Captain John Knight, who eventually passed it down to his daughter India and her tobacco tycoon husband, Walter Grey Dunnington. A subsequent massive renovation by the Dunningtons expanded the square footage of the house to 8500, including 14 rooms. Currently abandoned for over two decades, the mansion now sits alone by herself, in a beautiful state of decay and in search of a new owner. Join us on March 16th for a historical tour of this iconic mansion. Take as many pictures as you want along the way! THIS IS A NON-REFUNDABLE TICKET WITH NO REQUEST EXCEPTIONS. IF THE EVENT IS CANCELED DUE TO WEATHER, FULL REFUNDS WILL BE ISSUED. COMMONLY ASKED QUESTIONS What type of experience should I expect during this event with the purchase of a General Admission ticket? The ticket includes a 25 minute narrated historical tour of the property and a full two hour window to explore at your leisure. What kind of light should I expect for photography? We cannot guarantee the absence of exterior shadows given a sunny day. The event was scheduled in the afternoon so photogs could take advantage of the softer light. . A tripod is a MUST for all DSLR users for the interior images, especially on the first floor, which now had boarded windows. Will I get to shoot the inside of the mansion? For the most part. Almost all of the rooms are structurally sound and accessible with a few exceptions. Those rooms will be cordoned off and access to them will be strictly prohibited for safety reasons. A tripod is A MUST for photographers as the light in the mansion can get low in the late afternoon. I am less interested in the history of the property and more interested in just photographing it.

      <image:title>experiences - The Dunnington Mansion Photography Tour</image:title>
      <image:caption>Originally known as the Poplar Hill Plantation, the current beautifully abandoned Dunnington Mansion was actually a very modest four room home before it was acquired by Captain John Knight, who eventually passed it down to his daughter India and her tobacco tycoon husband, Walter Grey Dunnington. A subsequent massive renovation by the Dunningtons expanded the square footage of the house to 8500, including 14 rooms. Currently abandoned for over two decades, the mansion now sits alone by herself, in a beautiful state of decay and in search of a new owner. Join us on December 2nd for a self-guided tour of this iconic mansion. Take as many pictures as you want along the way! THIS IS A NON-REFUNDABLE TICKET WITH NO REQUEST EXCEPTIONS.

Currently abandoned for over two decades, the mansion now sits alone by herself, in a beautiful state of decay and in search of a new owner. Join us on December 2nd for a narrated and visual presentation of the history of this iconic mansion. You can register for one of two available sessions during the afternoon. THIS IS A NON-REFUNDABLE TICKET WITH NO REQUEST EXCEPTIONS. IF THE EVENT IS CANCELED DUE TO WEATHER, FULL REFUNDS WILL BE ISSUED.

An accurate depiction of the current facade of the mansion is shown below. I am less interested in the history of the property and more interested in just photographing it. Is this the tour for me?

      <image:title>experiences - The Ruins of Presidents Park</image:title>
      <image:caption>Several remnants from the original tourist attraction that was open from 2004-2010 will be on display as accompaniments to the 42 decaying sculptures that have now fallen into a significant state of disrepair. The mementos that will be on display include several of the original placards, park signage, vintage Park images and much more. In addition to opportunities to take pictures of the sculptures, interesting facts and stories will be shared amongst our guests throughout the day. Presidential trivia with PRIZES will be held during several sessions. Additionally, merchandise such as prints, puzzles, magnets, books and other souvenirs will also be available for sale from two of Virginia's premier "abandonment artists". CBS Sunday Morning segment on the Presidents Heads TICKETS ARE LIMITED FAQ's Are you open all the time to visit the Heads? No. Pre-ticketed events for public access are held 8 times per year, almost always on weekends ( holidays may be the exception) . Occasionally, photo workshops are also held. Public access outside of these dates is not permitted as the property doubles as a busy industrial recycling site that is operational, and off limits to pedestrians, for most days of the year. Can I visit the Heads outside of a guided tour or Photo Workshop? Unfortunately not. Where will this event be held? At the location of the Presidents Heads, which is at 8212 Croaker Rd. in Williamsburg, Va. The name of the business is Hampton Roads Materials. Parking instructions will be sent with the guest e-mail that is distributed a few days prior to the event. Why is there a difference in the ticket prices? The morning passes are less expensive than the afternoon passes because, in the event of a sunny day, the Heads are back lit in the morning, which could be problematic for photographers. The Heads become front lit by 1PM. How and when will I be notified of the specifics and logisitics of the program? An e-mail will be sent to the address used to register, beginning about a week before the event. This will cover all of the specifics you will want and need to know. Event information is also frequently posted at @John Plashal Photo on Facebook and Instagram. What is the refund policy? Refunds are accepted up until 48 hours prior to the beginning of the first event of the day. No refunds will be accepted if requested within 48 hours of the first event of the day- NO EXCEPTIONS. ALL REFUNDS MUST BE REQUESTED THROUGH EVENTBRITE. Is the general session that I registered for two hours in duration? The general session events are NOT two hours long, rather a two hour window of opportunity for you to visit. That being said, you will receive an itinerary in an e-mail prior to the event with the scheduled times of the Presidential Trivia and Storytelling sessions. It is up to you if want to participate in those sessions. Is there anything special that I need to bring? The area around the Heads is often wet or muddy, in which case rain boots or hiking boots will be highly recommended. The e-mail that goes out to all registrants prior to the event will offer an update on those conditions so you can be prepared with proper footwear. We conduct optional back to back speaking sessions during each time slot. Many of our guests prefer to sit down during these talks. If you fall into that category, then bring a folding chair or something to sit on. I am a photographer. Can I take pictures or fly a drone? Yes. Photography and videography is allowed as long as etiquette is exercised. Drones may NOT be flown during the speaking sessions. Do you conduct this program if it is raining? Yes. Unless it is forecasted to be sustained and heavy. We have a high threshold for cancellation out of respect to those that spend days traveling to the area in anticipation of this highly unique experience. Many guests actually prefer rainy and moody weather as it lends to the eerieness of the locale. Can I buy tickets on the spot? Only if the event is not sold out. We have strict attendance limitations with which we comply. What ages encompass a YOUTH TICKET? Ages 8-17 require a YOUTH TICKET. Ages 7 and under are free and are listed as a CHILD TICKET. Are there bathrooms on the property? Yes. There are portable toilets on the property. Are dogs allowed? Yes. Canines are our best guests. Having your dog on a leash is required. Please make sure to carry a bag to clean up after your dog. I am traveling from afar to visit the Presidents Heads and would like some recommendations on lodging? Williamsburg is about 10 minutes from The Heads and offers accommodations that fit ALL budgets. Do you conduct other events at The Presidents Heads? Yes. We occassionally offer various nighttime events at the Heads. Please review all event descriptions and FAQ's before committing. If I have further questions, to whom should I direct them? Please send an e-mail to "thepresidentsheads@gmail.com" with any additional questions. Please allow 1-2 days for a response.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Originally known as the Poplar Hill Plantation, the current beautifully abandoned Dunnington Mansion was actually a very modest four room home before it was acquired by Captain John Knight, who eventually passed it down to his daughter India and her tobacco tycoon husband, Walter Grey Dunnington. A subsequent massive renovation by the Dunningtons expanded the square footage of the house to 8500, including 14 rooms. Currently abandoned for over two decades, the mansion now sits alone by herself, in a beautiful state of decay and in search of a new owner. Join us on April 29th for a self-guided tour of this iconic mansion. Take as many pictures as you want along the way! THIS IS A NON-REFUNDABLE TICKET WITH NO REQUEST EXCEPTIONS.

Currently abandoned for over two decades, the mansion now sits alone by herself, in a beautiful state of decay and in search of a new owner. Join us on April 29th for a narrated and visual presentation of the history of this iconic mansion. You can register for one of two available sessions during the afternoon. THIS IS A NON-REFUNDABLE TICKET WITH NO REQUEST EXCEPTIONS. IF THE EVENT IS CANCELED DUE TO WEATHER, FULL REFUNDS WILL BE ISSUED. COMMONLY ASKED QUESTIONS What type of experience should I expect during this event with the purchase of a General Admission ticket? You will receive a narrated historical tour of the mansion as well as some free time to photograph the property. How will I get exact specifics and logistics for the event? An e-mail with that information will be sent in mid-April to the address used to register for the tickets. That information will also be published at "John Plashal Photo" on Facebook. Is this the only tour you offer of the property? No. We also offer a tour geared specifically towards photographers. The Photography Tour does NOT offer a historical narration and was designed for guests who simply want access to the property in order to take pictures of it. Occasionally, we willl offer a tour called "The Dunnington Mansion Experience", which also includes a fascinating storytelling session from several of the Dunnington descendants revolving around their early memories of visits to "Granny Dunnington" during their youth. While this Historical Tour offers a visual narration, it does NOT include the stories from the Dunningtons themselves. How long does the tour last? On average, the narrated tour lasts between 25-30 minutes, depending on the Q&amp;A duration. You are allowed to roam and photograph the property for the remainder of the allotted time. Will I get to see the inside of the mansion? For the most part. Almost all of the rooms are structurally sound and accessible with a few exceptions. Those rooms will be cordoned off and access to them will be strictly prohibited for safety reasons. Can I take pictures during the tour? Yes you may. We have earmarked up to an hour for you to photograph the property. If you would like to spend more than an hour taking pictures, we recommend that you register for the Photography Tour, although that does not offer any historical narration. The lighting on the ground floor is low due to boarded up windows on the first floor so you may want to bring a tripod. In the event of a sunny day, the potential for shadows on the exterior of the house is high. And the first floor windows have recently been freshly boarded up. An accurate depiction of the current facade of the mansion is shown below. I am less interested in the history of the property and more interested in just photographing it. Is this the tour for me? While you are able to take pictures during this tour, we highly recommend you participate in the Photography Tour, which will also take place on April 29th, but later in the afternoon. This tour caters to those who are strictly interested in photography. What is your refund policy? This is a NON-REFUNDABLE TICKET with no exceptions. If you are unable to make the event due to ANY CIRCUMSTANCE, the money you paid for your ticket(s) will be donated to the Dunnington Mansion Foundation . What should I bring to the event?

Refunds are accepted up until 48 hours prior to the beginning of the first event of the day. No refunds will be accepted if requested within 48 hours of the first event of the day- NO EXCEPTIONS. ALL REFUNDS MUST BE REQUESTED THROUGH EVENTBRITE. Is the general session that I registered for two hours in duration? The general session events are NOT two hours long, rather a two hour window of opportunity for you to visit. That being said, you will receive an itinerary in an e-mail prior to the event with the scheduled times of the Presidential Trivia and Storytelling sessions. It is up to you if want to participate in those sessions. What is a Dusk Pass? This pass is designed for photographers that may want to mitigate the presence of shadows in their images should it be sunny during the late afternoon. This time slot also falls during sunset, which always has a chance of being dramatic. We also cap the number of Dusk Pass guests to about half that of our usual General Admission capacity. Is there anything special that I need to bring? The area around the Heads is often wet or muddy, in which case rain boots or hiking boots will be highly recommended. The e-mail that goes out to all registrants prior to the event will offer an update on those conditions so you can be prepared with proper footwear. We conduct optional back to back speaking sessions during each time slot. Many of our guests prefer to sit down during these talks. If you fall into that category, then bring a folding chair or something to sit on. I am a photographer. Can I take pictures or fly a drone? Yes. Photography and videography is allowed as long as etiquette is exercised. Drones may NOT be flown during the speaking sessions. Do you conduct this program if it is raining? Yes. Unless it is forecasted to be sustained and heavy. We have a high threshold for cancellation out of respect to those that spend days traveling to the area in anticipation of this highly unique experience. Many guests actually prefer rainy and moody weather as it lends to the eerieness of the locale. Can I buy tickets on the spot? Only if the event is not sold out. We have strict attendance limitations with which we comply. What ages encompass a YOUTH TICKET? Ages 8-17 require a YOUTH TICKET. Ages 7 and under are free and are listed as a CHILD TICKET. Are there bathrooms on the property? Yes. There are portable toilets on the property. Are dogs allowed? Yes. Canines are our best guests. Having your dog on a leash is required. Please make sure to carry a bag to clean up after your dog. I am traveling from afar to visit the Presidents Heads and would like some recommendations on lodging? Williamsburg is about 10 minutes from The Heads and offers accommodations that fit ALL budgets. Do you conduct other events at The Presidents Heads? Yes. We occassionally offer various nighttime events at the Heads. Please review all event descriptions and FAQ's before committing. If I have further questions, to whom should I direct them? Please send an e-mail to "thepresidentsheads@gmail.com" with any additional questions. Please allow 1-2 days for a response.</image:caption>

Currently abandoned for over two decades, the mansion now sits alone by herself, in a beautiful state of decay and in search of a new owner. Join us on January 21st for a visual presentation of the history of this iconic mansion, accompanied by a narrated historical tour of the mansion. You can register for one of three available sessions throughout the day. THIS IS A NON-REFUNDABLE TICKET WITH NO REQUEST EXCEPTIONS. IF THE EVENT IS CANCELED DUE TO WEATHER, FULL REFUNDS WILL BE ISSUED. COMMONLY ASKED QUESTIONS What type of experience should I expect during this event with the purchase of a General Admission ticket? You will receive a narrated historical tour of the mansion as well as some free time to photograph the property. How will I get exact specifics and logistics for the event? An e-mail with that information will be sent in mid-January to the address used to register for the tickets. That information will also be published at "John Plashal Photo" on Facebook. Is this the only tour you offer of the property? No. We also offer a tour geared specifically towards photographers. The Photography Tour does NOT offer a historical narration and was designed for guests who simply want access to the property in order to take pictures of it. Occasionally, we willl offer a tour called "The Dunnington Mansion Experience", which also includes a fascinating storytelling session from several of the Dunnington descendants revolving around their early memories of visits to "Granny Dunnington" during their youth. While this Historical Tour offers a visual narration, it does NOT include the stories from the Dunningtons themselves. How long does the tour last? There are two separate tours, one of the exterior and another of the interior. Combined, they last around 40 minutes, on average, depending on the Q&amp;A duration. Will I get to see the inside of the mansion? For the most part. Almost all of the rooms are structurally sound and accessible with a few exceptions. Those rooms will be cordoned off and access to them will be strictly prohibited for safety reasons. Can I take pictures during the tour? Yes you may. We have earmarked up to 45 minutes for you to photograph the property (the other 45 minutes will be spent on a narrated tour). If you would like to spend more than 45 minutes taking pictures, we recommend that you register for the Photography Tour, although that does not offer any historical narration. The lighting on the ground floor is low due to boarded up windows on the first floor so you may want to bring a tripod. In the event of a sunny day, the potential for shadows on the exterior of the house is high. And the first floor windows have recently been freshly boarded up. An accurate depiction of the current facade of the mansion is shown below. I am less interested in the history of the property and more interested in just photographing it. Is this the tour for me? While you are able to take pictures during this tour, we highly recommend you participate in the Photography Tour, which will also take place on January 21st, but from 3PM-5:30PM. This tour caters to those who are strictly interested in photography. What is your refund policy? This is a NON-REFUNDABLE TICKET with no exceptions.

      <image:title>experiences - The Historical Dunnington Mansion Experience</image:title>
      <image:caption>Originally known as the Poplar Hill Plantation, the current beautifully abandoned Dunnington Mansion was actually a very modest four room home before it was acquired by Captain John Knight, who eventually passed it down to his daughter India and her tobacco tycoon husband, Walter Grey Dunnington. A subsequent massive renovation by the Dunningtons expanded the square footage of the house to 8500, including 14 rooms. Currently abandoned for over two decades, the mansion now sits alone by herself, in a beautiful state of decay and in search of a new owner. Join us on December 10th for a visual presentation of the history of this iconic mansion, accompanied by a chance to hear first hand stories from the great-grandchildren of Walter and India, who will be present and eagerly willingly to reminisce about life in the mansion during their youth. And yes, your experience will also include a vist to the property for a narrated tour of the mansion. We will begin the presentation and the Dunnington family Q &amp; A at the Greenwood Library on the campus of Longwood University beginning at 11AM. You will then have a ninety minute break to grab lunch at your leisure in Farmville before re-convening at the mansion for the narrated tour. THIS IS A NON-REFUNDABLE TICKET WITH NO EXCEPTIONS. PROCEEDS DIRECTLY BENEFIT THE DUNNINGTON MANSION FOUNDATION . COMMONLY ASKED QUESTIONS What type of experience should I expect during this event with the purchase of a General Admission ticket? A complete itinerary will be sent to the e-mail address used to register about a week before the event begins. The day will begin at the Greenwood Library at Longwood University with a historical presentation of the mansion and a Q&amp;A forum with the great-grandchildren of Walter and India Dunnington. Following a ninety minute break for lunch, we will re-convene a few short miles away for the narrated tour of the actual mansion. What type of experience should I expect during this event with the purchase of a VIP ticket? Your experience will be identical to that of the aforementioned General Admission experience. Additionally, you will received a complimentary 672 piece "Ashes to Ashes, Dust to Dust" jigsaw puzzle from John Plashal as well as a 5x7 luster print of the same image of the mansion in the snow. A 3D rendition of the puzzle box is shown below. Will I get to see the inside of the mansion? For the most part. Almost all of the rooms are structurally sound and accessible with a few exceptions. Those rooms will be cordoned off and access to them will be strictly prohibited for safety reasons. Can I take pictures during the tour? Yes you may. We have earmarked some time during the interior tour for you to take pictures of the rooms that are accessible. The lighting on the ground floor is low due to boarded up windows on the first floor so you may want to bring a tripod. In the event of a sunny day, the potential for shadows on the exterior of the house is high, as an FYI. And the first floor windows have recently been freshly boarded up. An accurate depiction of the current facade of the mansion is shown below. The mansion tour will occur later in the afternoon so the light may be slightly softer. What should I bring to the event? Please check the weather forecast for Farmville, Va. before your departure and dress accordingly. Should it rain, please bring an umbrella. Proper footwear is important as well. The landscape of the perimeter of the mansion is largely unkept. DO NOT WEAR NICE SHOES. Will you be providing lunch or are we on our own? There are plenty of local and tasty eateries in Farmville. Once the first part of the experience concludes at the library, you will be on your own to grab lunch before re-convening at the nearby mansion a short time later for the physical tour. How far away is the Dunnington Mansion from the Greenwood Library? 4.5 miles (approximately a 10 minute drive). Will you conduct the event in bad weather? We will still conduct the event in any weather that potentially jeopardizes your comfort. We will NOT conduct the event in any weather that potentially jeopardizes your safety. Should substantial snow or ice be forecasted, the event will be cancelled no later than December 8th and full refunds will be issued. I am unable to join you on the 10th. Will you conduct this event again in the future? The short answer to that question is "we do not know at this point." There are currently alot of moving parts that preclude us from publishing future events at the Dunnington Mansion beyond 12/10, although we are optimistic. If they do occur in the future, they more than likely will only infrequently include the Q&amp;A Forum with the Dunnington descendants, as their availability is scarce. I see that proceeds will be donated to the Dunnington Mansion Foundation. Can you tell me more about that organization? Sure. Here is the link : The Dunnington Mansion Foundation Will I have access to restrooms during this event? Yes. There are restrooms in the nearby golf pro shop. We will have a volunteer with a golf cart that will be able to transport you if you do not feel like walking. What is your refund policy? This is a NON-REFUNDABLE TICKET with no exceptions. If you are unable to make the event due to ANY CIRCUMSTANCE, the price you paid for your ticket will be donated to the Dunnington Mansion Foundation.

Please visit www.johnplashalphoto.com for a comprehensive list of events. In addition to the Presidents Heads events, we will also offer 2023 tours of the Belmead on the James and Swannanoa that have not yet been scheduled as of late November 2022.

This is an inexpensive, no-frills, basic access pass that entitles you to a two hour window to roam the property during the sunrise hours. The event organizers will be setting up during this time so there will be neither a Presidential Trivia contest nor a Presidential Storytelling session, just a basic two hour early morning window to explore the Heads.

      <image:title>experiences - The Ruins of Presidents Park - LABOR DAY WEEKEND</image:title>
      <image:caption>COME SEE THE PRESIDENTS HEADS UP CLOSE AND PERSONAL DURING LABOR DAY WEEKEND!  Several remnants from the original tourist attraction that was open from 2004-2010 will be on display as accompaniments to the 42 decaying sculptures that have now fallen into a significant state of disrepair. The mementos that will be on display include several of the original placards, park signage, vintage Park images,an authentic First Lady dress and much more. In addition to opportunities to take pictures of the sculptures, interesting facts and stories will be shared amongst our guests throughout the day. A Presidential Trivia contest will also be held during the general sessions. Additionally, merchandise such as prints, puzzles, magnets, books and other souvenirs will also be available for sale from two of Virginia's premier "abandonment artists".  TICKETS ARE LIMITED  FAQ's Are you open all the time to visit the Heads?  No. Pre-ticketed events for public access are held 8 times per year, almost always on weekends ( holidays may be the exception) . Occasionally, photo workshops are also held. Public access outside of these dates is not permitted as the property doubles as a busy industrial recycling site that is operational, and off limits to pedestrians, for most days of the year. The only summertime tour events at the Heads prior to this event are being held on Memorial Day Weekend and June 25th. There will be no tours in July or August. The remaining tours in 2022 will be held on Halloween weekend and New Years Eve. Can I visit the Heads outside of a guided tour or photo workshop?  Unfortunately not.  Where will this event be held? At the location of the Presidents Heads, which is at 8212 Croaker Rd. in Williamsburg, Va. The name of the business is Hampton Roads Materials. Parking instructions will be sent with the guest e-mail that is distributed 48 hours prior to the event.  Why is there a difference in the ticket prices?  The morning pass is less expensive than the afternoon pass because, in the event of a sunny day, the Heads are back lit in the morning, which could be problematic for photographers. The Heads become front lit by 1PM.  How and when will I be notified of the specifics and logisitics of the program?  An e-mail will be sent to the address used to register, beginning a few days before the event. This will cover all of the specifics you will want and need to know. If you do not receive this introductory e-mail within 48 hours of the beginning of the event, please contact John Plashal @ "john@johnplashalphoto.com". Sometimes it goes to SPAM in your inbox. Information is also frequently posted at @John Plashal Photo on Facebook and on Instagram stories.  What is the refund policy?  Refund requests are accepted up until 48 hours prior to the beginning of the first event of the day and will be issued MINUS THE EVENTBRITE CONVENIENCE FEE THAT IS ORIGINALLY CHARGED. No refunds will be accepted if requested within 48 hours of the first event of the day. ALL REFUNDS MUST BE REQUESTED THROUGH EVENTBRITE.  What is a Dusk Pass?  This pass is designed for photographers that may want to mitigate the presence of shadows in their images should it be sunny during the late afternoon. This time slot also falls during sunset, which always has a chance of being dramatic. We also cap the number of Dusk Pass guests to about half that of our usual General Admission capacity.  What is included in the VIP Pass?  This ticket is offered for those that prefer to experience this event in the absence of crowds.  Only 10 tickets have been made available for sale. An optional personalized Presidential Storytelling and Q&amp;A session will be offered by John Plashal. Additionally, each guest will receive a "Presidential Gift Bag" which includes a 5 x7 luster print, a magnet and a bookmark.  Is each event two hours in duration?  Each event is NOT  two hours long, rather a two hour window of opportunity for you to visit. That being said, you will receive an itinerary in an email 48 hours prior to the event with the scheduled times of the Presidential Trivia and Storytelling sessions. It is up to you if want to participate in those sessions.  I am a photographer. Can I take pictures or fly a drone?  Yes. Photography and videography is allowed as long as etiquette is exercised. Drones may NOT be flown during the speaking sessions. Do you conduct this program if it is raining?  Yes. Unless it is forecasted to be sustained and heavy. We have a high threshold for cancellation out of respect to those that spend days traveling to the area in anticipation of this highly unique experience. Many guests actually prefer rainy and moody weather as it lends to the eerieness of the locale.  Can I buy tickets on the spot?  Only if the event is not sold out. We have strict attendance limitations with which we comply. What ages encompass a YOUTH TICKET? Ages 8-17 require a YOUTH TICKET. Ages 7 and under are free and are listed as a CHILD TICKET. Are there bathrooms on the property? Yes. There are portable toilets on the property.  Are dogs allowed?  Yes. Canines are our best guests. Having your dog on a leash is required.

Within 10-20 minutes: Colonial Williamsburg, Jamestown, Busch Gardens Amusement Park, Water Country, Great Wolf Lodge. Virginia Beach is an hour away. To stay within the Presidential theme, Monticello, Mt. Vernon and Montpelier are also in Virginia. Washington, D.C. is about 2.5 hours away.  I am traveling from afar to visit the Presidents Heads and would like some recommendations on lodging? Williamsburg is about 10 minutes from The Heads and offers accommodations that fit ALL budgets. This is a holiday weekend. Don't wait to book your hotel.  Do you conduct other events at The Presidents Heads? Yes. We offer photography workshops to accommodate beginners, intermediates and pros, both during the day and at night.  If I have further questions, to whom should I direct them?

      <image:title>experiences - The Ruins of Presidents Park</image:title>
      <image:caption>COME SEE THE PRESIDENTS HEADS UP CLOSE AND PERSONAL DURING MEMORIAL DAY WEEKEND!  Several remnants from the original tourist attraction that was open from 2004-2010 will be on display as accompaniments to the 42 decaying sculptures that have now fallen into a significant state of disrepair. The mementos that will be on display include several of the original placards, park signage, vintage Park images,an authentic First Lady dress and much more. In addition to opportunities to take pictures of the sculptures, interesting facts and stories will be shared amongst our guests throughout the day. A Presidential Trivia contest will also be held during the general sessions. Additionally, merchandise such as prints, puzzles, magnets, books and other souvenirs will also be available for sale from two of Virginia's premier "abandonment artists".  TICKETS ARE LIMITED  FAQ's Are you open all the time to visit the Heads? No. Pre-ticketed events for public access are held 8 times per year, almost always on weekends (holidays may be the exception) . Occasionally, photo workshops are also held. Public access outside of these dates is not permitted as the property doubles as a busy industrial recycling site that is operational, and off limits to pedestrians, for most days of the year. Where will this event be held? At the location of the Presidents Heads, which is at 8212 Croaker Rd. in Williamsburg, Va. The name of the business is Hampton Roads Materials. Parking instructions will be sent with the guest e-mail that is distributed a few days prior to the event.  Why is there a difference in the ticket prices? The morning pass is less expensive than the afternoon pass because, in the event of a sunny day, the Heads are back lit in the morning, which could be problematic for photographers. The Heads become front lit by 1PM.  How and when will I be notified of the specifics and logisitics of the program?  An e-mail will be sent to the address used to register, beginning a few days before the event. This will cover all of the specifics you will want and need to know. If you do not receive this introductory e-mail within 72 hours of the beginning of the event, please contact John Plashal @ "john@johnplashalphoto.com". Sometimes it goes to SPAM in your inbox.  What is the refund policy?  Refunds are accepted up until 48 hours prior to the event. No refund requests will be accepted if received within 48 hours of the first event of the day. ALL REFUNDS MUST BE REQUESTED THROUGH EVENTBRITE.  Is the session that I registered for two hours in duration?  The event is NOT  two hours long, rather a two hour window of opportunity for you to visit. That being said, you will receive an itinerary in an e-mail prior to the event with the scheduled times of the Presidential Trivia and Storytelling sessions. It is up to you if want to participate in those sessions.  Is there anything special that I need to bring?  The area around the Heads can be somewhat wet or muddy, in which case rain boots or hiking boots will be highly recommended. The e-mail that goes out to all registrants prior to the event will offer an update on those conditions so you can be prepared with proper footwear. We conduct optional back to back speaking sessions during each time slot. Many of our guests prefer to sit down during these talks. If you fall into that category, then bring a folding chair or something to sit on.  I am a photographer. Can I take pictures or fly a drone?  Yes. Photography and videography is allowed as long as etiquette is exercised. Drones may NOT be flown during the speaking sessions. What is "Night of the Heads"?  Experience the Heads in the dark of the night. It's a completely different vibe. And to be honest, quite creepy. Only 25 tickets are alotted for this session. NO TRIPODS ARE ALLOWED AS THIS IS NOT A NIGHTTIME PHOTOGRAPHY SHOOT. We have different workshops for that.  What is the "Dusk Pass"? This pass is designed for photographers that may want to mitigate the presence of shadows in their images should it be sunny during the late afternoon. This time slot also falls during sunset, which always has a chance of being dramatic. We also cap the number of Dusk Pass guests to about half that of our usual General Admission capacity.  What is included in the VIP Pass?  This ticket is offered for those that prefer to experience this event in the absence of crowds.  Only 10 tickets have been made available for sale. An optional personalized Presidential Storytelling and Q&amp;A session will be offered by John Plashal. Additionally, each guest will receive a "Presidential Gift Bag" which includes a 5 x7 luster print, a magnet and a bookmark.  Do you conduct this program if it is raining?  Yes. Unless it is forecasted to be sustained and heavy. We have a high threshold for cancellation out of respect to those that spend days traveling to the area in anticipation of this highly unique experience. Many guests actually prefer rainy and moody weather as it lends to the eerieness of the locale.  Can I buy tickets on the spot?  Only if the event is not sold out. We intentionally don't pack it in with people for many reasons and have attendance limitations with which we comply. What ages encompass a YOUTH TICKET? Ages 8-17 require a YOUTH TICKET. Ages 7 and under are free and are listed as a CHILD TICKET. Are there bathrooms on the property? Yes. There are portable toilets on the property.  Are dogs allowed?  Yes. Canines are our best guests. Having your dog on a leash is required. Please make sure to carry a bag to clean up after your dog.  I am traveling from afar to visit the Presidents Heads and would like some recommendations on lodging? Williamsburg is about 10 minutes from The Heads and offers accommodations that fit ALL budgets.  We are coming from out of state and plan to make a long weekend of our trip to The Heads. What else is there to do in Virginia? Within 10-20 minutes: Colonial Williamsburg, Jamestown, Busch Gardens Amusement Park, Water Country, Great Wolf Lodge. Virginia Beach is an hour away. To stay within the Presidential theme, Monticello, Mt. Vernon and Montpelier are also in Virginia. Washington, D.C. is about 2.5 hours away.  Do you conduct other events at The Presidents Heads? Yes. Occasionally we will offer evening photo workshops and night tours. If I have further questions, to whom should I direct them?  Please send an e-mail to "thepresidentsheads@gmail.com" with any additional questions. Please allow 1-2 days for a response. Inquiries about visiting outside of tour dates will not be returned due to the inability to accommodate those requests.</image:caption>
