After nearly one year of searching for lost classmates, (and losing some we had found), we are pleased to extend the OFFICIAL INVITATION for you and your spouse or significant other to join us in celebration of the fortieth anniversary of our graduation from Russell High School.

Festivities begin at 6:00 Friday evening, July 24th as we congregate at Waudby’s downtown for a meet and greet, unofficial registration, and kickoff party that will include appetizers, dinner and drinks(we will purchase a keg and you buy your own dinner and any additional drinks) and will adjourn later (appx 9:00) to the Log Cabin.

Saturday morning there is a Dutch brunch at Meridy’s from 10:30 until 12:00. Unescorted tours of both the junior high (12:00) and the high school (1:00) are available. Afterwards, we will meet at the Dream Theater (2:30) for a multi-media trip down memory lane composed and emceed by Roxie Rein Wilkins! Evening activities will commence at 6:00 with a cocktail hour at Lasada, a private club south of town. There are eight rooms available at the lodge (www.lasada.com) if you would prefer to stay there. Dinner, appetizers, keg of beer, and bar set up will be paid for (otherwise BYOB); games and reconnecting with old friends will take the party late into the night. Ipod music and dance afterward at the pavilion. A short business meeting and silent auction to subsidize a memorial flower fund will precede the fun. We are soliciting contributions for the silent auction!

Sunday morning there is golf for the early risers at 7:00 AM and at 11:00 until 2:00 is scheduled for a picnic lunch )at the Southside Park across from the Bickerdyke schoole) as we say goodbye to those who are traveling back to their adopted home towns.

There is a block of rooms which are available for your reservation at the Americinn at 1430 South Fossil Street. The telephone number is 785-483-4200. There are 20 rooms availabe at $79.95 per room.

Today's Featured Biography

 

 
Karen Shankland Rosenkilde


It's been a really long time since I've seen some of your faces. I lived in Russell from age 2 until half way through my Sophomore year. My best memory of Russell High School was band and constantly being challenged or challenging Sam Froelich for first chair. I'm so sorry that he isn't with us anymore.

My parents moved me to Wichita during Christmas break our sophomore year. That was quite a change. Remember the riots?! It was very real in Wichita. I graduated from Wichita West and moved to Springfield, IL immediately after graduation. I came back to Kansas to do a year at KU. I was married 1970, and had my first son, Joshua in 1972. Jeremy came along in 1975. Joshua lives in Spokane, WA along with his wife Beth and my grand daughter Erica (16). Jeremy lives in Wichita with his wife Amber.

I owned a video store while I lived in Newport, WA (just N. of Spokane), and then eventually became, of all things, a corrections officer!

I then moved to Arizona to be closer to my parents so I could help out. I managed to secure a job AT (not in ;)) the City of Tempe,AZ jail, and then retired.

I do quite a bit of photography (I have a virtual zoo in my back yard, i.e. bunnies, quail, great horned owls, lizards, snakes, coyotes and an occasional bobcat. The pond in the back yard has quite a drawing power for wildlife.

I am considering moving back to Wichita within the next few months. My youngest son Jeremy and his wife are expecting TWINS in March. That's pretty hard to pass up. It is hard to leave such great weather. Sorry guys, but its been about 70 degrees this week, LOL.

I want to wish you all a very happy Holiday Season. Hope I will be able to attend the Reunion.

Karen Shankland Rosenkilde

P.S. The twins were born very early (Jan. 2009) and I kinda moved to Wichita in April 2009. All my things are still in AZ!
