THE GOLDEN CLASS OF 1980!

Thank you to those who traveled near and far to attend our 40th (41st) class reunion. It was a great gathering! Thanks to the generosity of all, we met Gretchen’s challenge and raised $2500 for our LaFollette Class of 1980 Scholarship Fund! LaFollette Seniors will continue to be blessed by the Class of 1980.

This reunion would not have taken place without the help of these individuals: Nancy Nilsen, Pam (Clark) Haley, David Nott, Tom Germanson, Ruth Pechauer, Ann (Rossmaessler) Wetley, and Vicki (Westphal) Kampmeier. It “takes a village” and they were our  helpful village for this event. THANK YOU ALL SO MUCH!
What’s next for our golden class?

• 45th Reunion!
• Where? TBD - Madison Area.
• When? Late Summer/ Early Fall 2025. Once we have an exact date, we will notify via email, our class website and Facebook page.
• Get involved! Email Pam (Clark) Haley at [email protected] to help us plan this event.

Other action items, (click the hypertext links below):

• Stay connected. Let’s stay in touch more often than reunions every 5 years! If you learn “news” of our classmates, please use the Contact Us form on our website, and the “Committee” will post on our website and Facebook pages.   
• Missing classmates. We made progress in finding those we “lost” touch. Please review the list at this link and use the Contact Us form to report updates. We are interested in email addresses rather than Facebook pages.   
• You have pictures to share from the reunion. Many are already posted on our Facebook page: LaFollette Class of 1980. Post there or send to Nancy Nilsen: [email protected]. We will try to get as many as we can on our website.  
• In Memoriam tribute video. This link takes to our Facebook page if you didn’t make the reunion or wish to see the video again.

Thanks to all who came to the reunion and to those who attended in spirit. We look forward to a great 45th Reunion in 2025!
