The 2009 Miller-Meteor Reunion was held over Labor Day Weekend, 2009 in Piqua Ohio.  Included events were a tour of Eagle Coach Company in Amelia, Ohio, C. W. Coach Company in Cincinnati and a side trip to the former H&E plant in Rossmoyne.  And that was just the first day! 

Friday, day two, found the M-M'ers traveling to the Logan County Historical Society in Bellefontaine, then touring the former A. J. Miller plant, also in Bellefontaine.  A tour of Accubuilt and the dinner celebration with the M-M retirees in Piqua rounded out the day, but not before lots of parking lot visiting! 

Saturday was the tour of the Clark Street plant of Meteor and, later, Miller-Meteor, and a recreation of the fateful day in September 1979 when the last funeral coach rolled out of the Clark Street doors.  The Piqua Heritage Festival was the next stop, where the professional cars were displayed.  A group dinner followed by more parking lot visiting rounded out the 2009 Reunion.  Special guests abounded at the event, and a very special announcement was made (see the M-M Book page on this website!).
