Favorite Activity/Spot
“Sunday night dances at the Woodman of the World. I think you had to be twelve or thirteen to go. There was a band and people would come from other towns, so you could meet other boys (and girls) and we had so much fun.”
Favorite Memory
“Other than family memories, I think of fun things we used to do. The one I remember the most is summertime scavenger hunt parties on bicycles, riding around to get the items and then rushing back to the party location, hoping to win! We’d usually form teams of three to four. It would be during the early evening, 6:00pm-8:00pm, and starting to get dark.”
