Just reading on the Oak Hill site and seen a post about store. I had no idea it was there. I was born in Oak Hill, Collins class of 1974 (if I had finished there) and love history of the area. Thanks!! I am sure my family that lives in Oak Hill area has been there but when I am in town visiting next year you will be on my list of things to do. Beautiful building!! Take care.

My husband and grandson toured the store last summer. It's great. The history of the store is so interesting. I have a friend in Spokane coming to visit in May. We waited until May so she can see this building. I am looking forward to the 2011 schedule. I hope there will be another car show. Keep up the good work there.

We toured today with Mike Caputo and other UMWA members. It is the most fascinating, illuminating museum tour I have had in a very long time. I recommend it, and will recommend it, to all West Virginians, all families of miners.

This is one of my favorite places to go! The first time I visited was on my senior trip in 2011 and I have been almost every year since. I have never been on a tour and not learned something new! I am amazed at the changes that have been made thus far and cannot wait to see what the future holds for Whipple! A big thank you to Lynn and everyone else that has been involved with restoring Whipple and giving the tours!!

Hi Mrs. Joy! Hi Charlotte! Soooo, Rachel, Joey, and I were talking about maybe trying to drive up there for a weekend visit towards the end of the summer, before Joey moves to Orlando for school. Let us know if that's ok, we wouldn't want to be an inconvenience to you. Hope you're settling in well!

We visited the Whipple Company Store in October 2013. We have traveled to historic sites in every state of the Union but never have we been to a place more interesting, fascinating, sad and making us wanting more information. Joy gave us so much info in the time we were there and took time to answer all our questions. I just purchased the book Dead Ringer to obtain more information on Coal History in WV. After visiting the Whipple Company Store we drove the Heritage Coal Trail using the Ipad to study each town as we drove thru. Even if history isn’t your passion, do not miss the tour at the Whipple Store. You will not be disappointed.

I remember passing this building when I was a child... thinking it would fall in any day. Now, I think it is such a beautiful, rustic building and so glad that it still stands today.
