LMHS Class of 1976 celebrates 46th reunion
Friday, July 8, members of the Lake Mills High School Class of 1976 gathered at Good Shot Golf, Emmons, Minn., to celebrate their belated 45th (46th) class reunion. Almost 60 classmates, teachers and spouses/partners gathered. The appealing setting provided a perfect backdrop for old friends to spend time together sharing memories, stories and catching up on life. The celebration formally began with a warm welcome by Kermit Singelstad, who also spoke in honor of deceased classmates, and provided a toast to them. Kermit then led everyone in the Norwegian table prayer, with many able to recite it along with him. A dinner followed with delicious food and great service. After dinner, Steve Nelson served as the ever-fun and jocular master of ceremonies. He directed and asked the numerous questions for a group game, Past Events, mimicking a game class members played in former teacher, Chuck Nichol’s, history class called Current Events. Overall, a total of 37 classmates attended the 46th class reunion event. If you were a member of the LMHS Class of 1976 anytime over the years, and did not see the reunion announcement, please contact Kermit Singelstad at Singelstad Hardware, 202 N. Washington, Lake Mills, Iowa 50450.
