Greetings Fellow Classmates of the Class of 1974!!

Plans are coming together for our reunion which will be Friday, June 7th, and Saturday June 8th. This is the same weekend as the Regatta on Lake Okabena. We have planned a variety of activities during the weekend.

FridayJune 7

Nobles County Minnesota Historical Society from 3:00-4:00 PM
NCHS has renovated the historic 100-year-old Worthington Armory building into a new Nobles County History Center, located at 225 Ninth St., Worthington. The Armory has been restored to its former glory with respectful updates for a modern time. This place holds many memories of pinewood derbies, boxing matches, gun safety classes, polio vaccinations and more recently gymnastics meets. No cost, but donations are welcome.

Cheers and Regatta 5:00 PM
Then you can head to Casey Ingenthron’s place at 26962 Plotts Ave for some conversation and fun from 5:00-7:00 PM before taking in the Windsurfing Regatta to finish your day. That will be happening at Sailboard Beach (better known to us as the old power plant area). There will be music, food vendors, and a beer tent.
