St Louis Park
Class of 58, The Luckiest Generation
 
 

      Welcome to the

St Louis Park Senior High School 

 Class Of 1958 Web Site.

Home of the Orioles!

We want to keep in touch with you.  If you change your email address, or mailing address or phone number, be sure to go to MEMBER FUNCTIONS  and make those changes under "Edit Contact Info." 

 

Some 60th Class Reunion Photos are here and posted on this website.  If you also took pictures, and are willing to send yours in to us, we will post them here as well.

You will find the photos at the three links at the left entitled:

  • 60th Reunion at Kip's Bar
  • 60th Reunion at Tim's Farm
  • 60th Reunion Banquet Shot 

We thank classmates Dwight and Cricket Atwood-Steege, Bill Kerwin, Donna Rose Reyes and KC Cravens for their willingness to share their photos.  Tim Kiernan's daughter, Monica, also contributed many of the photos taken at the Farm.  You may, in the case of each of the three files, look at the "slide show" of photos, timed to change every 7 to 10 seconds; or, you can find all the same still shots at the bottom of the page and look at them as long as you like.  Captions will appear at the bottom of some of the pictures.

We hope you had a wonderful time at the 60th Class Reunion on Aug. 24, 25 & 26.  Whether you came only for the Kip's Friday night social, or the Farm Event at Tim Kiernan's on Saturday, or enjoyed the Dinner and Program at the Minneapolis Golf Club on Saturday, a good time was had by all. 

On behalf of the planning and coordinating team, led by Karen (KC) Cravens Bretzke, we wish you good and stable health, for you need to prepare for our collective, all-classmates' 80th Birthday Party in 2020.  Stay tuned for news about that.

                Did you know? 
 ... that today is Pass to Yourself Day? In 1997, Minnesota Viking quarterback Brad Johnson passed the ball, had it batted back, caught it, and ran the ball into the end zone, thus becoming the first NFL quarterback to pass to himself for a touchdown. You definitely won't see a play like that every day!

Can you recognize this photo?

Remember when a penny was real copper?  This one from 1955 is an example.

    Rememberance Quotes for October  

October is the fallen leaf, but it is also a wider horizon more clearly seen. It is the distant hills once more in sight, and the enduring constellations above them once again.

           Five Ways to Prevent Hardening of the Arteries

Hardening of the arteries, also referred to as atherosclerosis, occurs when there is a buildup of plaque in the walls of the arteries which results in the arteries becoming hardened and narrower.

Hardening of the arteries can eventually result in heart attack or stroke, so it's very important to prevent the condition. However, you needn't be left in the dark on how to prevent hardening of the arteries.

Here are five ways for you to prevent this serious condition:
