1966 Fun

Carla Underwood is seated on the left. Greg Heavner in the white T-shirt. John Beck seated on the table and smiling. Bill Barton standing on far right. Robin Rewerts seated on table on the right. This looks like a team meeting just prior to the traditional afternoon baseball game! I think Greg is volunteering to single handedly win the game! 

Chow line, 1966

?, Deb Fritz, Carla Underwood, Gwen Heavner, Jack Albee. Deb, you will want to edit. Is that your Grandmother Schmidt closest on the right?

Jr. High 1964 (1 of 2 weeks)

This photo is courtesy of Gwen Heavner Tokatz ... Let's name them all if we can. (note the rows in this picture are less defined than in some .. try to be as specific about location as you can ... there appear to be 4 rows kneeling on the ground ... do the best you can ... reference some known ids if needed)

1:1 James Kelly, 1:2 Rebecca Kelly 1:4 Robert Kelly 1:5 Paula Harden 1:10&11 those twins from Herrick whose names are just out of reach 1:14 David Jackson 1:26 Larry Bolla 2:1 Cindy Huffman 2:2 Susan Hentz 2:3 Linda Hill 2:7 Debbie May 2:13 Janet Gum 2:14 Charlotte Redmon 2:15 Linda Thomas 2:16 Gwen Schmidt 2:17 Debbie Vogan 2:24 Evan Mac Lockwood. Now the rows get messy, but still kneeling at 3:4 is John Beck, at 3:9 Paula Bush, I think Carla Underwood is kneeling 3:13 directly above the "64" and at 3:17 Jane Whited, 3:19 Bill Barton, 3:20 Roger Lamar. In the row above that merges in and out, 4:6 Judy Grafford 4:10 is Deb Fritz, 4:14 Vickie Nowlin, 4:18 Scott Cain, 4:19 Carolyn Stever, and 4:20 Carla Patton. Debbie and Paula are "together" again in this photo! Yeah! 5:1 Bob Kelly 5:2 Shirley Kelly 5:3 Harriet Albee 5:4 Jack Albee. Row 5 splits into three with Micheal Jackson above, Cheryl Lamb in the center and Bruce Nowlin below. Then continuing after Cherl is John Heston, Gary Thornburg and over three is Greg Heavner. Linda Gehrig is behind Carolyn Stever and Jim Taylor is behind Greg in the very back. Gwen Heavner is above the space between the p in Camp and the J -- not quite all the way back.

Where is Debbie Vogan? Found her! (Thanks, Holly!)And I don't see Russell Boatman either.

A couple of people at the left are between 3 and 4. 4:2 Art Leitze 4:5 Linda Hill 4:6 Susan Hentz 4:9 Cathy Opperman ? 4:10 Cindy Huffman 4:12 Debbie ? 4:16 Robin R? 5:1 Bob Fritz 5:2 Debbie May 5:6 Gwen Schmidt 5:11Jan Foutch 6:1 Janet Thornburg 6:14 Margaret Iberg 6:15 Paula Bush 7:1 Lois Fritz, 7:5 Sandi Heston 7:7 Deb Fritz 7:8 Janet Greenlee 7:9 Linda Gehrig 7:15 Grace Boldt. (The numbering on those back rows is messy so if you count differently just look for those you recognize.)

Sandi Heston at first said she didn't think she was in this pic, then later recalled, "7:5 is Me! I worked this week as faculty. I got a call from Frank Bush on Saturday morning, before camp started on Sunday(!!) asking if I could teach a class. The woman who was scheduled to teach it had been in a serious car accident. I said yes...and then quickly had to do laundry and get ready for camp. Had lots of ironing to do...all those cotton clothes... no permament press back then! I remember the class I taught was on "The Miracles of Jesus". And it seemed to me a miracle that I, at 16 & not a lot older than the girls I was teaching, somehow got treated like an adult by them!It was a fun week, the kids were great, and it was fun to be on the "other side" of things. I had a greater appreciation for our faculty when I went to H.S. and Life Recruit weeks later on that summer!!Becky Huck was the song leader that week and I think that is her (minus her glasses) in the white dress, third one in from the left on the 3rd row. I Remember Deb Fritz being kitchen help that week and Bob and Lois being there on faculty too.Great memories!"

Whiteds in early days; Family camp and fun night circa 1965; trio

The Whited family hasn't changed a bit, huh?

Lois Fritz is teaching. Is that Steve Underwood, Robin Pickett, James Kelly, and on the end Joe Schmidt?

We identified Holly Harden and ??? on the left, Leroy Thompson and Scott Cain on the right helping dress Art Jordan.

Melissa Sefton and the Steele twins, but not sure which is Anita is on left and Sandy on the right. (Thanks to Sandi Heston Rinderer and Kay Wiseman Dobson.)
