After 16 years of holding down the fort at Stonefield, Peg Rewey retired yesterday! Peg played an instrumental role in growing Safe & Spooky into the successful event that it is today, welcoming up to 3,000 trick-or-treaters over the course of four hours. With an eye for merchandising, retail, and custom product development, per cap numbers always hit their goals with Peg. She gladly assisted the other Southwest Sites with their stores and has taken her talents to assist at the Wade House Historic Site in Greenbush, Wisconsin as well. We wish Peg the best in retirement! ... See MoreSee Less
