Farm Term
In July 2016, about 40 alumni gathered in Wisconsin to celebrate the 45th Reunion of Farm Term. Did you participate in the term? Share your memories and let us know who you recognize in the photo.
From Marla Rybka Biss '73:
It's about time I responded to the Farm Term photo in the Fall Knox Mag. Of course a photo with people's backs to the camera could only be identified by one who was there. Was this a deliberate choice or perhaps you didn't have any better photos?
From left side: Marla Rybka Biss, Kadie Finlayson (can't find list of current married names), Chuck Gardner, Mary Mundt Reckase, Doug Wilson, Dan Reckase, Dewey Moore, Caity Curley seated on fender. Girl on the grass in foreground might be Sandy Lamprech Heggeness. I don't know who the man in the tractor is.
