OSHKOSH REUNION 2001 RECAP

Oshkosh 2001 July 28, 2001

Alumni and friends of the Institute attended the second annual Oshkosh Reunion held at the Charcoal Pit in Oshkosh Wisconsin. Over Fifty-eight attendees shared stories and renewed old acquaintances from 4:00 to well past 7:00. This year’s event brought out a new wave of alumni, however, many of those who attended last year did not attend this year.

This was Dr. Taylor’s last reunion as Director of the Institute and it was highlighted with the presentation of a barbecue recipe book signed by the attendees and presented to Dr. Taylor by our Alumni Constituency Board President Karen Koening. Pictures were on display showing various events and activities Dr. Taylor participated in over his 21 years as the Institute Director.

Over the course of the evening the discussions were interrupted with a raffle of several items which included Institute mugs and cups, and several Alumni Association mouse pads. Everyone had a great time and found the evening passed to soon. Fortunately, Karen diligently got picture s of almost everyone so the memories can be relived and those of you who could not attend can see who did. Check out the photos below.

Now is the time to start planning for next year. Oshkosh will be from July 23 to July 29 with our 2002 Reunion planned for Saturday July 27th. Stay turned to the web site for updates and any changes.
