Wow. 30 years almost! What a time it\'s been since graduation. Hoping to finally make it to one of these reunions. Life has been crazy, but wonderful too. Traci

my class does semi-informal reunions and i want to suggest a mixed informal semi classes reunion like one for '87 , '88 , and '86 how does that sound?

My prayer goes out to our class mate Glenn Jones\'s family this Memoral Day. As he was killed in Dessert Storm. He gave his life for each on of us, what a hero he was and I thank him for his service. God bless is loved ones.

Julie,I would like to thank you again for getting thoses slow pokes going! I know Michelle Grubb, Christia Helmer and Linda Newman have also been workng hard. Please let me know the other unamed angeles whom put so much work and time onbehalf of all of this. They to need to be thanked as well! I am really looking forward to the reunion! Nicole Molskness Walling

Thanks to all who are working on this huge project, we appreciate the hard work. We can't wait to see everyone.

I'm looking forward to seeing everyone!

Thanks for taking the initiative to get this up and running! It will be a great way to get in contact with the class of 87!

Looking forward to seeing all of my old friends

Everything on the website looks great. I am looking forward to next summer. Should be a great time and great to see everyone again. Thanks for putting it together.

Hi, Julie! I found it! I will get the word out to as many people as I can. Let me know if you need any help. I live in White Bear Lake, which is a northern suburb of St. Paul, but I will do what I can. My parents still live in GR so I do make it back now and then.

I just happened to pop onto this site on Nov.20 2010. I was very sad to hear of Grants wife. People, it just goes to show all of us that life is so very short and valuable. We have lost so many friends and it makes those thing s that we thought were so big seem so small. I pray for this great class of 1987 to have peace and joy and the strength to keep stepping forward. This christmas I want to encourage poeple to spend time not money  with the ones we love and make momories... that they \'ll remember.  God Bless Pastor Michele Schusterhopechrist777@yahoo.com

Great job on the website Julie and Craig!! I am really glad that you did this. I was never contacted about our 10th reunion, so I am looking forward to our 20th. My thoughts and prayers go out to Kelley and her family. It is really great reading everyones bio's!! I will keep watching for new things.

I have recently gotten in touch with a few people from school and I can honestly say that I'm really glad to be reconnecting! Thanks for the great site. I'm looking forward to seeing everyone again.

The weekend sounds like it will a lot of fun and I am looking forward to it. Hopefully the food will include some kind of meat and potatoes not just finger food. Looking forward to hearing from some of you guys.

Hi Everyone! I missed our 10th year reunion; I won't make that same mistake again for our 20th. I encourage everyone to contact someone and pass this event on so that we may have an absolutely wonderful event with ALL classmates!!! Take care, Alan Swan

After joining the committee and being completely harassed by Julie, I figured I better register. I will try to track down as many people as possible. Hopefully still living in GR will help. Looking forward to seeing everyone.

Looking forward to playing music Saturday night. If you have any requests, please send them to me via e-mail. Be excellent to each other.

Glad you found our site! Please sign the guest book. Once you sign, it allows your e-mail to be kept for future contacts by our committee. Please pass the word as to the site. We have alot of people to locate and want to build a fantastic site. That takes time and lots of bio information from classmates and photos. Please send a contact to me on any information you can provide. Keep checking this site should change often!! Enjoy it, contribute to it's content send me an e-mail with questions or updated info. Julie

I'm really excited about the 20th!

Hey Class, Just a quick message. I have been contacted by dozens of classmates looking for people and contact information to classmates. For so many I have that contact info. I have decided that for privacy reasons I will not be giving this information out to people. I feel that if you wish to be contacted you will register and provide a contact ( email is all we offer for info and it is only a link not your email address )-(open). Please keep this in mind as you visit the site or or have a contact to a classmate not yet registered. People are searcing for one another and would like to chat. I feel bad that for many I have the contact info however feel that I can not / should not give that info out. Just a bit of information I wished to pass along. In closing as always.....please register and check the MIA list and forward info on those you may have or contact them and encourage them to register. * Sorry.... I could not help myself..At the reunion I will be the person wearing the t-shirt that has the phrase "register...MIA list" as that is all people will remember me for :)*

I WILL LET JEFF CARLSON, AND ROB JOHNSON KNOW TO GET OFF THE MIA LIST, THANKS FOR ALL THE WORK YOU ARE DOING FOR THE REUNION

Hey everyone! I know I am not th only one with pictures from jr. high/high school!! Send in your pics!! And, if you know anyone who has not registered keep hounding them until they do!!!! My husband has his 20 yr this summer also, and he is in charge of his website. Their class is using the guestbook to banter back and forth and it is a riot!! Hope to see a record turn out from our class!!

The organization for the reunion is wonderful, thank you to all who are working to make it such a success! Looking forward to seeing everyone!

Looking forward to a terrific time in GR with everyone. Thanks for an awesome website!

THE '87 Reunion was a blast and I apoligize for crashing it, I'm on my reunion committee and came for some feed back and idea's as well as see alot of you again that I had class' with and 08/08/08 will be held @the Pokegama golf course, and you people feel free to drop in that night and say Hi. 

Hey class. I've been following the discussions on classmates.com and after seeing the class of 86 do such a nice job on their website, I'd like to thank Julie and Craig for getting us off to a great start here. I look forward to seeing more pictures in the photo section. It is amazing to think that 20 years have passed. So much has changed in our lives since then that it almost seems like a dream. I look forward to seeing everyone and re-establishing friendships that have faded through time and distance. I wish you all health and happiness and hope everyone can make it next summer.

Hello Class of 1987! Thanks so much to everyone on the reunion committee for all your preparations once again!! I am going to jump on the opportunity to be the first to use this fancy message board this year. Things are about to become a bit unpredictable for my husband and I, and I want to be sure to connect with you all. The timing of the reunion is not going to work for us as we are transitioning from our lives in Shanghai, China to Mumbai, India. We join Oberoi International School on July 22nd - so the craziness of the new academic year will be in full swing as you are all watching Craig and most likely Linda and Gordy up on stage. It would have been fun to see everyone again! I hope you have a wonderful turnout and a super fun weekend!   If ever interested in checking out Mumbai in the next few years, look me up. We can be reached at geisenkischs@yahoo.com. Our home is always open to friends and family; even if we are away/traveling during school holidays.   Wishing you all the best - continued health and happiness. John and I are doing really well and have loved Shanghai! We are ready for a new adventure and hope to see you in another 5 or 10 years! Sending lots of love to the families and close friends of classmates who are now at rest. We realize everyday how very fortunate we are and are thinking of you all! Catherine Geisen-Kisch

Thanks Julie for such a great sight! I saw the add in the paper yesterday. Can't believe it's 20 yrs. already!!! Let me know what I can do to help out.

Wow, I was still waiting for the 10th reunion to come around, what happened? Just got a message from Raquel Buckley about this site. Talk about bringing back some memories, we went to grade school together out at Wendigo, thanks for making the effort Raquel! (I'm pretty sure I had a crush on you in 5th grade) Was in GR in June but won't be making it for the reunion though it has been great to check in on everybodies whereabouts. Thanks to all who are maintaining this site, it's fantastic!

hi everyone, hope all is going well

just thought i would say hi to some of the people iremember going to school with. have fun at the reunion

I am in-country this summer visiting family and will plan to attend the reunion ... It would be wonderful to see everyone and get up to the north woods!!! Unfortunately my husband, John, who was with me during the last reunion will have already returned to our current home in Cartagena, Colombia. He has to be back on the 7th as he is a physics teacher and classes begin ... I on the other hand have some flexibility! We got engaged, in fact, the weekend after the last reunion while camping in the boundary waters so I am bummed that he will not be able to join me but I will bring lots of photos ... anyone in need of a sunny vacation spot you are always is always welcome to come and visit ... we will be living on the Caribbean one more year at least ... we'll will talk more soon! Catherine

20 years already? Who knew? Can't wait!

on my bio at the endto get to my carringbridge site go pass  all the way down till you get to email address type in ricknicwal&MSN.COM

Wow, what a cool time! For starters, I have tried to 'sign' this guest book a couple of times and it hasn't worked. I am hoping that this time it goes through. Has anybody else noticed that the zipper at the top of this page isn't working properly? Anyway, I am sorry, as many others are as well, that there wasn't more time to talk to everyone and catch up over the past two decades. I definitely agree with Julie and Michelle, let's do a 25th and not wait another ten years. This was so much more fun than I could have hoped for. Mike L. now that Iknow you are out in the Seattle area, drop me an e-mail and maybe we can get together sometime, Tim K. so happy for you and your 4 month old. You look to be quite the proud papa and on Sunday you looked like a natural. Don D. congrats again on the upcoming birth. It is a wild ride being a parent...but a great one. Remember the parent's mantra 'It is a phase...it will pass.' And to all of you that kept Adrienne (my wife) going out on the dance floor THANK YOU, for you gave me more of an opportunity to talk to many more people that I have thought about over the past, say 20 years or so. Thanks also to Gordy and Linda for the wonderful gift of a safe driver for the nights of festivities. And thanks as well to the reunion committee for making the festivities very fun and enjoyable and something that we will look forward to again! Peace, Kent

I'm with you Linda! I am disappointed that some people are not signed up to go! It would be so fun to have a reunion with as many from our class as we can get. Come on everyone, don't you just want to go to see how that guy or girl who sat in front of you in English class looks now?? I think it is pretty amazing to see how different our lives are now and where our journeys in life have taken us. And how different that probably is from what we thought our futures held. I hope some of you that are still undecided, will choose to go and have a fun time!!

As I return to 2007 back from 1987 I am remebering the faces of many old and some not so old friends which I got to connect or reconnect with. To all the organizers of this terriffic reunion. Thanks, you really out did yourselves. To all of you who danced, sang, and enjoyed life on the dance floor, remeber to be free and live life to the fullest, as I know you will. A special thanks to Julie J and her husband Jim, thanks for making me feel so welcome. To the music man and the party queen, Gordon and Linda, can't wait to see you two again, soon I hope, keep it rock'n. To John and Lynn Theiman, keep in touch, and thanks John for letting me steal Lynn to the dance floor. Michelle Schuster thanks for making me laugh when you thought I needed it. Catherine Geisen thanks for the talk at Linda and Gordy's. To Matt Booth stay in touch, I will be heading down south to see ya,keep the cray-fish pot hot. To Brenda Young thanks for the dance that took 20 years to accomplish. Thanks to all who put up with me on the dance floor. To save the best for last, Lisa Mangseth you are a terrific lady, first class all the way. When you need this friend I will always be there for you. Thanks again to all, don't be a strainger, Lets get together for whatever, does not have to be every 5 or 10 years. Julie, Jim, John, Lynn, Linda, Gordy this fall, let's not forget. Hopefully we can snag Lisa in as well and anyone else who would want to go. Remember it is kinder, "To be brutally honest, than to lie with kindness." Thanks again to all, rock on 1987 Roy

What a great weekend!! It was so fun to see the "fruits of our labor"! And even though we had four days, it did go fast. I have to say I did not last as long as some of you party animals, but I had a blast. I didn't get to talk to people very long it seems. I have to say Brenda Young, you are hilarious! I am so sorry for the things I said to you in grade school!! It was such a great idea to take the Murphy Mustang "now" picture! I will post the "then" and "now" once I recover from my husband's reunion which is this weekend!! Cathy Geisen, you look fabulous and you are as well-spoken as I remember, with the occasional explitive thrown in! Linda, it has been so great reconnecting with you after all these years. There are so many I enjoyed talking to! I think our class looks fabulous, and like Julie said, "has aged like a fine wine." Darin D., glad you made it, and that Cordell found you when you started walking from the golf course! I told you we had DD drivers!! Glad you are safe! I should be recovered enough in five years if you all want to do this again!!

Way to go Julie and Craig!!! Doug Johnson forwarded me the website. Thanks and look forward to seeing everyone!

B.Y.O.B. ???

I know some people are on the fence about coming to this. I've spoke with quite a few classmates and sounds like people are waiting to see whose going to be there. I would really like to see all of you, so please RSVP and come. Someone may be waiting for you to RSVP, I know I am. Thanks

Gosh, where do I start? Thanks to everyone that had a hand in organizing such a great event. It was more fun than I could have imagined (as some of you that saw me late Saturday night!). I spoke to some of you more than others but it was nice seeing you all after so many years. I'm looking forward to seeing everyone much sooner next time around. Thanks to several people for the dances, the drinks, the conversation and ride home!

WOW! I feel like I am late for an important date! I just found the website today! Thank you for all your planning & stratergizing! Hopefully I am off "the List" as I did register. Keep in touch, Julia :)

A HUGE THANK YOU to my best friend, Linda for giving me the push to go to our 20 year reunion!! I had a great time even with a migraine. There wasn't enought time to catch up with everyone but I will do better next time! Also thank you to the rest of the planning committee for putting together a fantastic weekend of fun and memories. Until we meet again....live life to it's fullest!

woot, great job everyone. I swear if the Rialto theatre is still sitting there empty I'm going in and watching "Dirty Dancing"

Wow has it been 20 years already... I'm still in contact with quiet a few of our classmates, and I know they don't have this website so I'll makes sure they get it. Looking forward to seeing everyone next year.

Hi everyone! Thanks for all who are making this come together so quickly! I appreciate all of your work:) I am looking forward to seeing everyone again! Can't believe it's been 20yrs!

Wow! I'm impressed with the web site. I wasn't able to make it to any reunions and this is a great way to start thinking about all the people I lost touch with. I'm planning on being there in August. Thanks Julie and Craig.

Holy Cow that was FUN! My head still hurts, I didn't remember what "one too many" screwdrivers felt like. Props out to Gordy for the best dancer award, I want a job like that. Did anyone else see the 18 yr old Vincent Chase look-a-like bumping on dance floor? I think Ashton Kutcher is his idol. Seriously though, thanks to everyone for organizing this wonderful event. I know it's a lot of work trying to track down hundreds of people. I still feel like it went by way too fast to really catch up with everyone. I stopped at my mom's house on my way home and told her how sad it was thinking I wouldn't see most of these people for another ten years and she had an interesting idea. "Since so many of you live or work in the cities why don't you have a random happy hour or lunch gathering every 6 months or so at a rotating location with just a standing invitation for everyone and use something like Evite or a website to coordinate it." I can't believe I missed the hot tub and I even had a poolside room, dangit. Take care everyone.

It was great to see old friends! Darrin and Cordell you guys really made me laugh! I hope Brenda got back to the right room! Poor girl!I had 2 ER stops before Sat! But I made it! My husband Rick and I stoped by my old house Just for old time sake(Jack Morris of the MN Twins bought it and his parents live there now They invited us in for over an hour! Showing differnt changes! Yhen Ardell aka mr. Morris gave me our old California liseece with Northe Hollywood fram from Where we moved from. I'm sending it to my dad as a surprise! Anyway, Great job Gordy!!
