Another walk down memory lane brings us to more music! We looked at the band in earlier posts. How about the chorus at North? Were you part of this? Are you still involved with singing and/or music today? What are you favorite memories? Were you part of the musical that we put on that year, “Hello Dolly”?

Here is a picture of the Northwind Yearbook Staff and their Advisors. All of this was done without AI, digital cameras, computers, and layout programs. Student photographers, a camera, film, dark room, prints, creative writing skills of 17/18 years old, manual work to layout pages and so much more under the guidance of great teacher advisors. Thankfully, it has provided us with wonderful memories!
