Welcome to the Augustana Academy Class Of 1964 message forum. Please press "Post Response" to participate in the discussion.

Karen Wallem will be writing soon about these t-shirts. The model is from the class of 1968 who was attending his reunion last summer.

Lonnie Ellison (Simonson)

What do the rest of you think about the burgundy polo shirts?

Lonnie Ellison (Simonson)

Is anyone interested in golf on Friday morning? There will be a Sioux River Park walk close to downtown, but golf is an alternative. Post a reponse to let us know how to plan.

Regarding the T-hirts modeled in an earlier entry on the message forum, Karen Wallem says

            "We may have the opportunity to have new Augustana Academy T-shirts made.  Is there any interest?   If so, express an interest on the web site and we will talk about it over our reunion weekend. "

Please add your response on this forum and we'll see what develops. I see Rana has already done so. Jump in and add a reponse to this or any part of the reunion.

Hi Rana and Lonnie!!  Remember me?!  It will be so fun to see you!   Are we talking T-shirts or polo shirts?  I vote for Burgundy.

Lonnie Ellison (Simonson)

Hi Shirley-of course I remember you! We are talking burgundy polo shirts! Thanks for using the forum!!

Shirley, we were freshmen cheerleaders together, weren't we? Practicing in the halls of the girls' dorm--uff da. So glad you're coming to the reunion! Rana

Esther Stene (Krueger)

Lonnie,

The burgundy shirt on the model would be fine.  I would purchase one.  I'm looking forward to seeing everyone at the reunion.

Shirley Beitelspacher (Meddaugh)

Rana---yes we were freshman cheerleaders!  I'm so glad I will get to see you at the reuniion.

Lonnie, aside from the time Karen, you, and I got together in the early 90's, the only other Augie classmate I've seen more recently, aside from pal Karen, has been Louise Lommen when Karen and I got together with her last summer in Baltimore.  I enjoyed the visit so much, that when they started talking about the reunion, I decided I had to attend!  I understand you have remained in contact with Jan Nelson.  I don't think she is signed up for the reunion yet, so please tell her I want to see her and to be there or be square!!

Lonnie Ellison (Simonson)

Hey Shirley-I will definitely tell Jan Nelso to be there or be square! I just love to talk to her like that!! Ha Ha.

Esther, I'm glad you like the polo shirts, too. We'll see if we can get more classmates interested.

Esther Stene (Krueger)

Does anyone have an e-mail address for Alice Marble?  I would like to contact her about the reunion.

Thank you for any assistance.

Esther

Lonnie Ellison (Simonson)

Hi Esther,

the only information I have about Alice is an address in Norway:

Alice Marble Gammelsfster

Kjelsasum. 28

0488 Oslo

Norway

It would be great if you could get in touch with her.

Rana Limbo

So, even though my freshman roommate, JoAnn Singsaas, graduated a year early, how about if we see if she will come to a second 50th reunion? We want her there!! Rana

Lonnie Ellison (Simonson)

Who would call Gregg and Wendy to encourage them to come to the reunion events? The cell phone number is 605-212-4394. I called them once but only got their answering machine, so left them a message. More calls may work the magic!
