<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial> You could consider emailing them
about your own stories of the Emerging Generation (EG). I think I will tell a
few of the stories about the Wisconsin summer camp. I know each of you have
memories of that summer as well. </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial> Jana, you have EG stories on

<DIV dir=ltr>Thank you for all of your input. I've asked a Nancy Lanphear and
Carol Crow to put together a 1-2 sentence entry for the Chronological History.
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>Now, there is more history to be written. There is little information in
the archives on the Emerging Generation. I will get a list of what is there. If
2-3 folks would like to take on pulling stories and material together on the EG
with details on trips, curriculum etc. that would be very good.</DIV></DIV>

<DIV dir=ltr>In 1980 the 6th grade trip trip was to the Boundary Waters in
Minnesota. Our son David Lindblad and probably George Hawley were on the
trip that was led by the Bergdalls and a couple other folks. They
portaged a lot of canoes and Dave felt a sense of accomplishment. I think they
had one night alone as part of the experience. We left on a family trip right
after he finished and I don't remember how long their trip was.
Bergdalls probably do.
<DIV><BR>
<DIV>We are living in Cincinnati OH and enjoying watching Dave's second
daughter play varsity soccer as a freshman along with her cousin the goalie.
His oldest daughter just entered Miami University in Oxford, Ohio. I am
currently pulling together our Metro Records for the Archives.<BR></DIV></DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>Best to all.</DIV></DIV>
