Alumni from Minonk-Dana-Rutland convened in Phoenix, AZ from February 10 -12. Over 35 people attended the 3 day get-together which was hampered somewhat by two days of rain as it canceled a planned trip to Sedona. Tours of the Desert Botanical Gardens was the only outdoor event that could be scheduled. However, the days were spent with visits to the museums and the race track. Each evening was spent conversing and reminiscing at a fine restaurant.
The event was planned by Martha (Eikenmeyer)Owens with help from Pam Palmer Goy. Much appreciation is extended to Martha for her work in making the second annual MDR reunion in Phoenix a success. An event is planned for next year and suggestions are welcomed as to time and place. For more pictures of this years event, click here.
