Eighteen pupils that attended the Camp Nine one-room country school gathered for a reunion on August 7. It was held at the Heritage Center in New Richmond where the original school was moved 26 years ago.
After gathering in the pavilion and eating a potluck lunch, everyone walked a short distance to tour our old school. It brought lots of memories back. We all agreed the school looked much smaller than what we imagined it to be. Jean Booth then presented Bev Pierson, director of the History Heritage Center, an enlarged, framed picture of the 25 students, and teacher Doris Ohman, that attended Camp Nine in the school year 1956-1957.
