Two very special guests are coming from Norway, Randi Halden and Kari Haldorsen, descendants of Ole Pedersen. We will have a special welcome and gift for each of them from all of us.
© Please bring copies of any photos you’d like to share. We will have a scanner and computer available to make copies at the reunion.
© There will be a display area for heirlooms so if you have something you’d like to share, please bring them. Some items that may be there are Ellen Marie Olsen Wold’s spinning wheel, her box with Rosemaling on it with a few of her possessions, her sewing scissors, a quilt made by her, Ole’s reading glasses, a fumigator used by Ole and Ellen Marie, their family Bible, etc. We will have an area cordoned off to keep these treasures as safe as possible.
© If you haven’t filled out and returned your reunion questionnaires, we will have them for you to complete before you leave.
© Please bring copies of any life histories of your family that are not included in the ‘blue book’ so that we can add them to the NEXT generation blue book!

Please!

Hi Everybody,
I don’t know if anyone would be interested but there are a few beds at the Recreation Center that someone could use and also if anyone wants to, there is an area of grass that you could pitch a tent and sleep there. We won’t be able to ‘move in’ until after 1:00 on August 1st but I wanted you all to know that you’re welcome to camp out there if you want.
We should be getting the finished announcement out soon!
Hope to see you all soon,
Margie
