Today's Featured Biography
Karl Augestad
updated: 12/14/16
Karl was born in Alaska during statehood like many other classmates. My parents imigrated from Shanhi China, Hong Kong, San Francisco, CA and then moved to Anchorage, AK in 1959.
Parents are Alfred & Virginia Augestad were married for over 62 years as of Jan 2015. Al, my father is a Downtown Rotary member with perfect attendance for o50+ years! Mother, Virginia is a long time Zonta member here in Alaska and loving mother passed in August 2015. She was 89. Karl has 2 sisters, Karen (Augestad) Casanovas a 1973 WHS grad. and lives in Eagle River and Kristine Augestad a 1984 WHS graduate and lives near Sacramento, CA in Greenbrea.
Karl and Lu Cantu were married in on June 6, 1994 in Anchorage on Karl's birthday. An easy anniversary to remember. Karl met Lu while living as neighbors in condo complex in the Turnagain area in west Anchorage.
Karl then became a father and grandfather. Their daugher Renata Cantu-Rogers has 3 children. Thus our grandchildren, Chris, Elizabeth and Eden.
All currently live in Alaska and as of Dec 2016, Chris is 26, Elizabeth is 24, Eden is 16.
My wife Lu and I own and operate Action Video Productions located midtown in Anchorage. Lu handles the accounting, bookeeping and is the office manager. Karl handles the technical duties. Providing: digitizing, Videography, Editing, DVD/tape duplications and full line of AV equipment rentals. Karl founded the business in 1984. You may have seen the Neon sign on West Northern Lights across from REI next to the UPS store.
Karl plays competitive Table Tennis and is president of Alaska Table Tennis. A ten-time Alaska Open Doubles champion with Bob Camden, classmate from WHS '78. And a 6 time Open Singles Champion. Karl travels with fellow Alaskans to tournaments in DC, Maryland, California, Nevada, Washington, Texas and Oregon.
Recent Team member of the 2006, 2007 & 2014, 2015 ALASKAN ASSASSINS at the North Americal Teams in Baltimore & Washington DC. Finishing 2nd in 2007 with teammates from Alaska, Gemany & Bahrain. Competing again in Nov 2017 in Washington DC at the NATT TEAMS.
Karl visits West, Chugiak & Dimond HS PE classes to talk to students about the history, rules, strokes and answers questions about table tennis. The students challenge Karl and plays against them with a mini racket. If they win a game they receive a NEW MINI TT RACKET. Many past students approached Karl years later saying they remember me visting their class at WHS.
When a student at West Karl represented Alaska in 1976 in the Arctic Winter Games in Shefferville, Quebec Canada. Both he and fellow WHS77 classmate David Evans competed as junior athletes and earned a silver Ulu in doubles and a silver Ulu in mixed doubles and bronze in team. Later played as an adult team player in 1982, team coach in 1994, sport coordinator in 1996 and coach & volunteer from 1982 thru 2018.
Karl & Lu love to travel and visit Texas. Lu's relatives live in San Antonio, Austin and Houston.
Our company, Action Video Productions is proud to have edited the Classmates video loop and the Memorial Video & donate the use of a wireless microphone and data/video projector for the reunion at the Millennium Hotel.
Now Karl & Lu are investing in Real Estate in various cities in the USA.
Karl & Lu had a great time revisiting alumni and classmates at past WHS77 class reunions. Looking forward to 2017. Drop Karl a text or email to say hi.
