It was three days of fun, laughs and just plain talking.<br \/>\nPlanning started a year and a half ago by chairman Maralyn Fink Woodbury.  It was past time for a class float, so it was scheduled for Mint Festival weekend.<br \/>\nOn Thursday morning the committee gathered at Michigan Sign and Graphics to start putting together \u201cthe float\u201d.  Fours hours later, it was completed.<br \/>\nTraveling to different party stores as far as Traverse City, we completed just the right touches that were needed.  Thanks to some experienced carpentry, the backdrop was up and running.  Decorations and straw bales completed the look.<br \/>\nMy thanks go out to Bruce DeLong and Andy T\u2019s for the use of the trailer and the straw bales.  And to my committee members Ranny Briggs, Jean Martis Bradley, Sue Tarr Laningham and her husband Al and Janet Henning Light.<br \/>\nGo Class of \u201859!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>With an album by Maralyn Fink Woodbury<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[21,16],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-41979","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-album","category-reunions"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/stjindy.com\/archive1\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/41979","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/stjindy.com\/archive1\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/stjindy.com\/archive1\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stjindy.com\/archive1\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stjindy.com\/archive1\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=41979"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/stjindy.com\/archive1\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/41979\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/stjindy.com\/archive1\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=41979"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stjindy.com\/archive1\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=41979"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stjindy.com\/archive1\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=41979"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
