For web page Mauston and Madonna High School Classes of 1965, 50th Reunion.
Reunion committee: Bernadette Clements Arnold, Sue Carpenter Mellum, Sid Ashworth, Al Pentell, Ron Winker, Gail Erickson Rollins, Beth Brockman, Alice Walsh
We started planning early for this reunion to make sure that everyone will be able to make plans to attend this milestone in our lives. It has been mentioned for almost every reunion to invite the 1965 class from Madonna to a reunion and this year we have. Many of us started kindergarten together, some of us went to grade school at St. Patrick’s, some of us transferred in high school to Mauston, some took ag classes at Mauston while going to Madonna, many of us were neighbors playing together, and others were in Scouts and 4-H together. So finally we will all get together. We hope to plan a fun filled and enjoyable weekend for everyone. We want your input on dates, places, and activities. We would like you to check in with us leaving your name, address, telephone numbers, and E-mail addresses as well as your opinions on reunion. We will keep you updated on the Mauston alumni web site and a face book page. If anyone wants to work on the activities, please let us know.

Some of the 2013 class mottos that were in the paper :
New Lisbon;
We all take a different path in life, but no matter where we go We take a little of each other everywhere.
Necedah :
The moments may be temporary, but the memories are forever.
With the death of several of our classmates in recent years I think that these two sayings really hit home and say a lot. Let’s make some more memories for the next 25 years- because when we’re 90 we will remember our early years together so lets add to them.
