Looking at the pictures, I wonder what was more important…the chat or the food. Maybe both? The event was held at Deer Creek Run in New Berlin on October 28th, and hosted by Suzy Cook Horn, in the party room of Suzy’s apartment complex. As usual, the food was aplenty. It was an open bring-a-dish-to-pass. There were salads, snacks and desserts. Eat your heart out guys! It was a fun event and is always great to see and renew with our classmates. Those attending were Suzy Cook Horn, Gloria Sprague (not pictured), Susie Rentmeester Smid, Katie VanKorn Zirkel, Carol Miller Rauen, Helen Steinman Ackley, Darlene Lane Malkow, Pat Humphrey Schertz, Carolyn Maier Anderson, Nancy Oleson Jones, Nancy Abendroth Thiele, Mary Jane Jaeger Payne, Susie Driscoll Lucht (not pictured), Diane Drews Johnson and Norine Degner Peardon.

Kathie Clark Golembiewski graciously hosted an appetizer potluck on May 24, 2011. What a collection of FOOD! The meal was enhanced by the view of the beautiful Milwaukee skyline and lakefront. Those attending were (left to right): Susie Cook Horn, Norine Degner Peardon, Darlene Lane Malkow, Pat Humphrey Schertz, Kathy Clark Golembiewski, Nancy Oleson Jones, Joanne Christian Abel, Carol Miller Rauen, Katie VanKorn Zirkel, Helen Steinman Ackley. Taking the picture was Joan Evans Krueger.
Highlight of the gathering was the cupcakes …from Milwaukee Cupcake Company located just down the street from Kathie’s residence. Although a very cold day (East wind off the lake), there was plenty of warmth inside. 
Was this Kathy’s last party? ? ?

On Friday, May 8, 2010, all classmates who were interested met at Prebnow\’s for a fish fry! What a great evening…..45 attended. Some were from out-of-state. Examples; Karen Monis Lembcke ( Indiana) and Elenore Harrison Dofelmire (Illinois). Of course, Norine, the storyteller, and Carol, Our Historian, were in attendance! We even discussed birthdates. Who cares when you are in your late 60\’s ! Wisconsin\’s weather was not very cooperative, but we didn\’t care! There was plenty warmth to go around! Stay tuned for the next update!
So sorry that I had to miss the gathering on May 8th. My 94 year old mother had a slight stroke last week and was not discharged until Thursday night. She is currently living with Jerry & I and we did not feel comfortable leaving her. Looking forward to attending the next gathering.

Great work. Glad to see the subsequent photos at Kathy’s luncheon.
The August 1955 picture was taken in what started out as our cottage on Lac La Belle and then became a two car garage. It had a double size bunk bed and we stayed there in the summer while living in Maywood Il. My parents purchased LaBelle Beverages at the end of my 6th grad year and started building the year round home my freshman year. Last time I drop past the property, the home had torn down and replaced with a very large (too large for the lot) year round home with an attached 3 car garage. The original garage was still standing and looked like the contractors used it while constructing the home. My guess is that the original garage is gone now. Looking forward to celebrating our 70th birthdays in July. Kathie
Enjoyed the photos, looks like the gatherings were enjoyed by all who attended. Thank you for providing this wonderful site. Look forward to the next gathering.

I remember that ‘slumber party’ and have that same picture! Remember water skiing on LaBelle at 6am? Ah, the good old days! Mert
