1967 & 1968 Championships Reunion

Alma Scots Football Reunion News Note #1

Reservations for the reunion the weekend of September 5-6 have been returning at a trickle pace as plans for the special celebration continue to firm.  You should have received a reunion packet that included a letter, reservation form, housing listing and a list of team members and available e-mail addresses.  Our immediate concern is to contact everyone. The following members have dropped from the college alumni records:    TOM DINES   RICK LEDY   DAN PEACOCK   JOHN STANTON   STEVE STRICKLAND   RANDY VAN SICKLE   DON VIELE   GUY WALSH.  If anyone knows the address, telephone number or e-mail address of any of these missing teammates, please let me or any one of the reunion captains whose names appear below have the information.  Phone numbers and e-mail addresses follow:                    

CAGray                 989 464 2082     gray@alma.edu                     
John Fuzak           517  349 3472     jfuzak@aol.com                  
Jim Ciceri              248 474 3707      jim.ciceri@meemic.com               
Denny Bongard     517 694 4410      bongardma@aol.com          
Roger Frayer         734 591  2440     conniefrayer@sbcglobal.net

Also, e-mail contacts are much faster and easier so if you know the e-mail address of anyone on the master list without the e-address, let us know.

Skip Traynor, long-time member of our public relations office, has been digging into the library archives and other resources to develop a souvenir DVD of the magic 1967 and 1968 seasons. We do not have16 or 8 mm. film of the 1967 year, although I have a film of the 1967 pre-season scrimmage.  Can anyone help us???  The DVD will be running in the lobby before the Bluffton game and at the reception.  The intent is to add photos of the reunion week to the DVD and then mail a copy to each member who attends the reunion.

Some have inquired about the 2008 football schedule:

                                   Sept.  6             Bluffton College
                                   Sept. 13      at   Illinois Wesleyan
                                   Sept. 20            Rockford College
                                   Sept. 27            UW-River Falls (Homecoming)
                                   Oct. 11        at   Tri-State University
                                   Oct. 18              Kalamazoo College
                                   Oct. 25        at   Olivet College
                                   Nov. 1               Adrian College
                                   Nov. 8          at   Hope College
                                   Nov. 15             Albion College

Make an effort to contact your teammates to drum up every effort to attend this very special reunion.  It promises to be dynamite weekend.
                                                                        

Charlie Gray,  for Your Committee
