The Bottorff Family Association has its annual reunion the 4th Sunday of June (June 24, 2012) at the Ladies Union Club on Charlestown Pike in Prather, Utica, Clark Co., Indiana. Potluck lunch is at 1:00 followed by a short business meeting. From Charlestown, IN drive 4 miles southwest on Indiana Hwy 62, then bear right on Charlestown Pike. From Jeffersonville, IN drive northeast about 7 miles on Indiana Hwy 62 (3 miles past I-265) then make an acute left on Charlestown Pike.

The Iowa Bottorff Reunion is June 9, 2013, at the Fairview Lodge on Grant Street near the Carousel, in Story City, IA. Story City is 10 miles north of Ames on Interstate 35. The Reunion starts at noon, and is a potluck dinner which requires a serious nap before driving back home afterwards. Anyone is welcome to attend.
