 The West Fargo High School Class of 1975....
Probably the most heard comment from fellow
classmates is how fast the last thirty years have gone by. That certainly seems to be true. Just think, thirty years from now we'll be 78! Many of us
have kids that will be in their 40's and 50's!!
It's funny how we are still drawn back to the mostly "care-free" days at good old West Fargo High (which is now the Lodeon Center - West Fargo built a new high
school a dozen years ago or so). Heck, we've all been out of school way longer than we ever went!
On August 26th and 27th of 2005, the Class of 1975 reunited to celebrate the 30th Anniversary of it's graduation from West Fargo High School. On Friday
evening, Keith and Jann Monson hosted a meet and greet at their farmstead near Harwood (in 1975 we called it a "kegger"). On Saturday morning, a couple dozen
classmates participated in a golf outing at Maple River Golf Course in Mapleton (no one's bragging - the Bloody Marys were pretty strong, but good!). Saturday
evening a dinner banquet was held at the West Fargo VFW. Dancing and other revelry continued until closing time (and probably beyond).
Special thanks to the Reunion facilitators.....including Judy Clark Grinde, Kim Ferch Keller, Paul Erlendson, Craig Hakanson, Linda Weiand Kasowski, Linda Nelson
Rodgers, Keith and Jann Monson, Bob Wenzloff, and I'm sure numerous other unnamed individuals.

Paul Erlendson says he is organizing a 50th Birthday Celebration in Las Vegas in 2007 and he wants to invite you! Finally, if you have any interesting
information to share on the reunion, life the past 30 years, or school days, please send them in and they'll get posted. |
