Reunion Fundraisers
The fundraising dinner held on November 20, 2009 was a great success. We sold 312 tickets, serving 282 meals. We want to take this opportunity to thank all the volunteers who worked both Thursday and Friday and the ladies who donated those fabulous "bars."
We will be holding another fundraising dinner on April 30, 2010. We will be serving Evie Harvala Hagen's (class of '60) world famous meat loaf with all the trimmings. Price is a mere $8.00 and we will start serving at 4:30 pm.
Karen Bliss Danks (class of '95) had the foresight to apply for a grant from Itasca Mantrap. We were one of the winners and we received a check on Friday, November 20, in the amount of $750.00. Thanks to Karen and Itasca Mantrap.
The main fundraiser is the selling of the name badges - a.k.a. "the button." The price for the 2010 reunion button will be $10.00. This will get you into any of the reunion get-togethers on Saturday evening plus the picnic on Sunday. The sale of the buttons pays for all the food served at the picnic - pays in part, the rental fee of the school auditorium and registration area. the rental of the tent and the music provided at all 4 of the Saturday evening events.
We will gladly take donations for the reunion. Please send checks, made out to "2010 All School Reunion," and send them to PO Box 505, Park Rapids, MN 56470.
If you planning not to attend the reunion or if you are unsure and would like to support the reunion by purchasing a 2010 button, please send $10.00 per button to the above address and we will put your order in the mail asap. On the other hand, if you know you are attending, please wait and purchase the button at the reunion to avoid losing it. Some of us are getting old. 
A big thank you to Pine Manors, who donated monies to keep this website up and running for another 5 years. 
Thanks - the 2010 Reunion Committee
