The Colonial Williamsburg Foundation is trying to entice hundreds of employees to retire early to ease the impact of a 10% drop in visitors this year. Williamsburg officials said that early retirement will be offered to about 8.6% of its work force of 4,200. The plan, which is expected to save about $1 million, was offered to employees who are at least 55 years old and have at least 10 years of service with the nonprofit foundation.
