Reunite Wapella


Nothing does a Wildcat enjoy more than reuniting with other fellow Wildcats (or maybe not, I am around a few of them every day, and they are doozies). So the great Chuck Underwood put together seventy-eight former students of the Wapella Schools at a reunion last Saturday night at his home, east of Wapella on the Farmer City blacktop.

Students from Florida and Texas were in attendance as well as 91-year-old Ray Thompson who was ag teacher at Wapella High School in the 1940's.

I, for one, have yet to attend a WHS reunion where the DeWitt County Sheriff was not called. Thanks to Chuck and Marilyn for keeping this one under control!

I was there. It was a quiet evening, no excitement, other than seeing former students. Large sign posted at entrance. No Alchol.
