Last of the summer fun

Way back in February, several friends from UW Oshkosh theater found each other on Facebook and decided that a summer reunion would be a blast. Since class reunions are always arranged by year of graduation, you never get to see all of the friends that you worked with before and behind you in school. This reunion was an open invitation to anyone who went to UW Oshkosh and worked in the theater in the 1980s. It was a blast.

We met Friday night for a cocktail party and tour of the Fredrick March theater then followed it up with dinner at the Challis. Saturday we had a picnic in the park that lasted from early afternoon until late night! There was baseball, volleyball, lots of drinking and a ton of remembering. We also rounded out the evening with Phony Tonys and though Pete and I headed back into town to check on the puppies, everyone else went back to the cabins where they were staying for a bon fire.

Sunday we all met for Brunch before heading back to our respective homes. It was great to see a lot of people that I haven't seen in up to 22 years and we made plans for more opportunities to meet up more regularly including another reunion next summer.

























For our last adventure into the ball park this summer, we took our friend Michael down to Beloit to experience a Snappers game. We couldn't believe that it was our first of the summer, but of course this summer had a little different priority than previous summers! We had a great time, and it was a good game.
