REUNION NEWS LETTER
In 1976 the remaining eight children of Engebret & Elise Jorgenson
gathered the clan together on the family farm in southwest Minnesota.
That marked the beginning of what has become a bi-annual “happening”.

Meals
We
will NOT be sharing any dining halls with another adult group or a
bunch of kids who do not know! This reunion we will be
with family members of the Jorgenson Clan. The majority
of our meals will be catered and the staff will do the actual food
preparation. Those that arrive Friday afternoon and evening will
have the opportunity to roast hot dogs over an open fire or indulge in
snacks and sandwiches. The meals we will have at the Farm are
Saturday's
breakfast,
lunch and dinner and Sunday brunch. Oh yes the cow tank with lots of
pop or soda, for the east coast folks, will be on hand.
Important Items To
Bring To The Farm
- Story's of days gone by and questions for the story
tellers.
- Bug Spray
- Flash Lights - Trip to the hunted woods might be in
order.
- The Farm is NOT an Alcohol Free environment.
- The Farm is NOT a smoke Free environment for you die
hard smokers. There is NO designated smoking area. The
traditional King Edward Cigars that Grandpa smoked are fine at the
bonfires.
- Pets ARE allowed on the Farm.
- An attitude of fun.
Things are coming together for the
reunion. In a few
days I will send out an updated list of attendees, directions to the
farm, and
other important items.
If there are changes regarding your
attendance, including
benches and new members, please let me know as soon as possible.
Equipment has been ordered (tables, chairs,
tent, portable
rest rooms etc.). The caterer will need a head count by 15
May. I
need money from you folks now to cover deposits and initial
purchases.
Please send a partial payment to me at ($60 per person):
