and Paula have been very busy working on the 2008 reunion in
Omaha. It is scheduled for September 24-28. You will find all the
pertinent information for making your reservation at the Quality Inn

Henry Doorly Zoo which has the world’s largest indoor rainforest,
desert, and nocturnal exhibits, Old Market, Gerald R. Ford
Birthplace, Heartland Gondolas, Joslyn Castle, Wildlife Safari, and
plenty of shopping malls to spend your money at.

is something you would like to visit, let us know. We value your
suggestions and will do our best to put your suggestions in our
agenda.
