There were 89 people (70 adults & 19 kids) in attendance.  The oldest being Evie Brown (85 years old) and the youngest being Lucille Greenfield (5 months).  Dawn, Lane, & Gunnar Lindeman traveled the farthest, coming all the way from Rancho Santa Margarita, California.  The big Wiggs (Marilyn & Ron) came from Mesa, Arizona.  Liz Manley & the Sotelos (it was great to see Nic looking so good) came from Michigan.  Traveling from Colorado were Ami Brown, Ashanti, & Ginger while all others came from either Wisconsin or Illinois.  Eva Miller, who would’ve been 100 on the 12th of June & Harry Goodman passed on since the last Reunion and were missed.  Newborns in this past year were Wren Violet daughter of Ryan & Jen Richards, Lucille Anne daughter of Erik & Kate Richards, Eva Antonia daughter of Wes & Natalia Henricksen, Allie Belle daughter of Ross & Alicia Brown, and twin sons Cooper Jack & Dawson Rylee were born to Jeff & Kati Wiggerman.

Interestingly, for the first time ever, there was not a family member with the last name Lindskoog at the Reunion.

As is tradition, the family picture was taken by resident family photographer, David Greenfield, and remember, “If you can’t see the camera, the camera can’t see you”.

There were many treasures to be had at the Lindskoog White Elephant table, where a silent auction helped hold down the cost of the reunion to $5.00 per adult.  That bargain price included delicious food (hot beef sandwiches, potato salad, cole slaw, baked beans, cheese & hardtack, homemade pickles, & nachos), scrumptious desserts, along with various flavored drinks, coffee, & water.  The food was homemade and it was very tasty, all of the hard work was very much appreciated.  Bill Mielke said grace before the meal was eaten.

The kids had a blast, & won prizes, playing team relay fill-the-bucket-with-sand, and bowling down water bottles.  Everyone joined in in singing the National Anthem and then it was time for the horse races.  The horse races featured jockeys of all ages, who moved their plastic mounts according to dice rolls, and everyone bet on their favorites.  Kirk Wiggerman was a two time winning jockey, while Dru Brown was the luckiest gambler, winning 20 chips.  Nathan Kaminski won the dollar bill raffle.

Thanks to everyone for all your hard work, a good time was had by all.  The Eva Miller family will host the 63rd Lindskoog Family Reunion on Saturday June 23rd in the Chicago area, be there or be square.

Waupaca, WI

The 60th Lindskoog Family Reunion is over, and all survived!

http://animoto.com/play/Tc7EqM0FRey13G5bfd6QVg

Golf Outing

The opening event included nine people golfing at the Waupaca Country Club. Barry Tomaras, Mike, John, Aaron, and Andrew Porrey teed off at 11:00 and golfed 18 holes. Ken Porrey, Kim Kaminski, Joyce Petersen, and Mary Jo Tomaras all joined at 1:00 for the last 9 holes. The day on the golf course was beautiful. Joyce Petersen came and golfed for the first time! She did magnificently!

Cottage Welcome

The next event started on Friday, June 26th with an Open House Welcome at the Porrey/Tomaras Cottage on McCrossen. Forty-Two relatives began arriving at 5:30 to the Open House where all had good conversation, stories, appetizers and cocktails. Ken and Jan Porrey arrived with cheese and crackers. John Porrey brought soda and ice, as we forgot to purchase any! Dru Brown and his family arrived by boat after an hour of traveling on the lake. Evie Brown came to the cottage with Jim, Jodi, and Molly Montgomery. Tedd Mallasch drove his family by boat. Todd and Lisa Mallasch brought a taco dip – Barry’s favorite – to add to the appetizers. Bob Miller arrived with an empty cooler and left with a full one! We do not know how that occurred, but things happen! Bill Kaminski said the chicken wings were terrible and that no one should eat them! He would take one for the family and eat the rest if he needed to. Eva had the ride of her life walking down the Grandview Road to her cottage on Miner Lake with Jerry Petersen as her co-pilot – Jerry just stopped in the middle of Grandview , looked up at the Big Dipper and followed it home! Roger and Pat Lindskoog arrived around 7:00 after getting bum directions from the front desk. Overall, all appeared to have a great time and the last guest left at 9:00.

The 60th Reunion

SKOOG Game

All began to arrive promptly at 12:00. At 12:30, Mary Jo rang the “cow bell” signifying the start of the first game. I mentioned that they would be telling me where to put the cowbell by the end of the reunion! The first activity was “SKOOG”, a type of Bingo. All were able to participate, as there was an adult version and a children version. The first family member to complete their SKOOG board would receive a prize. Joyce Petersen won, as she waited for Pat and Roger Lindskoog to arrive in the parking lot. Joyce won a Swedish windsock. Molly Montgomery, Amanda and Braden Mallasch all tied for child version. Prizes were not awarded at that time, as there were not three awards for the children. Each child will receive Dairy Queen coupons in the mail for their efforts.  The game provided everyone to meet and greet old and new family members.

Games following the Meeting:

Dollar Game

Mike Porrey won the pot of $72.00 for the dollar game.

Lindskoog Fact or Fiction

Index cards were all turned in with questions. Next year we are going to have to work on direction following, as some questions were not Fact or Fiction questions!

Todd Mallasch and Mary Jo set up the buzzers for people to buzz in with their answers. Barry Tomaras read the questions with the help of Tedd. Amanda Mallasch and Mark Pechnick were the official buzzer clearers! Mark often reminded others to buzz in after the question was read! As people correctly answered the question, they were handed the card. Stories were told as facts were revealed. When all cards were read, Carol and Harry were tied. Eva came up with the tiebreaker question. Carol won and received a Swedish Windsock.

Swedish Raffle

A Swedish raffle was held with 10 items purchased from a Swedish Craft Sale last December. The tickets were 3 for $1.00, with the money went towards the cost of the gifts. People chose which gift they wanted to win and placed their tickets into envelopes. Some of the winners were Mike Porrey – Swedish Placemats, Kiersten Lindskoog – Swedish Book, Bette Kleppe – Swedish cup, Amanda Mallasch – Swedish Straw Ornaments, 2 Swedish Pigs ornaments – Loretta Miller, Braden Mallasch – Coloring Book, 4 Grog Cups – Lisa Mallasch. All of the items found a good home! Thanks to all who participated.

Memory Relay Game

All kids were told to make a team of four people. We had six teams. Each team was given a color ball – blue, purple, black, red, green, or a yellow stick. The winning team had to be the first to locate all five of their colored object underneath each cone. Only one person from each team can be on the grid at a time. If a person locates the correct color, they keep the cone turned over and bring the object to their line. If a person does not locate the correct color, they need to turn the cone over and go back to their line so the next person can have a turn. The first game was played with many infractions by the “older” generation. It was noted that the game is played by kindergarten through fifth grade students at the Waupaca Learning Center and they do not have any problems following directions. Therefore, another game was played and played successfully with all rules being followed! Winners include:

Game One        Team Mallasch: Amanda, Braden, Lisa, and Todd

Game Two       Team Lindskoog/Goodman/Guziec: Matt, Annaliese, Marla, and Harry

Congratulations to all for being able to remember where your colors were hidden!

Egg Toss

During the Fact/Fiction Game, Mark asked when we were going to have the Egg Toss and Water Balloon Toss, as these are the only reasons he comes to the family reunions. Amanda Mallasch informed him he had to come to the family reunion because it is family, he did agree with her rationale. After telling Lisa Mallasch and Sharon Miller, they quickly made a run to Aldi’s to get eggs for the egg toss, as to not disappoint Mark.

There were approximately 15 teams. The organization of the Egg Toss game was “tossed” over to a wonderful volunteer. (At this time, we cannot come up with the Egg Toss Director. Please let us know the name of the director so we can give him the credit he deserves.)  The egg toss was underway. Teams concentrated and tossed their eggs with great care. After 15 minutes, we had a winning team of Austin Wiggerman and Erik Pechnick! Way to go everyone! Betty Kleppe picked up all the eggshells! She’s a keeper Mike!

Postcards to Eva

While we never finished the game, Eva received many warm thoughts from the family about the reunion. The cards were given to Joyce to read to Eva after the reunion was over.

5:00 P.M. Dinner

After all the games, many stayed and ate dinner with all of the leftovers. When we all had enough to eat, the set up crew – Porrey/Tomaras – along with the Miller, Mallasch, and Petersen families all helped clean up and load up the vehicles.

Overall, it was a wonderful two days. It was nice to get the family together to see “old” family friends and make “new” family friends. We hope that no one went away hungry or bored! Until the last Saturday in June 2010, stay safe and be happy!

Respectfully Submitted

Barry, Mary Jo, and Lois Tomaras
