Welcome this new business in town, Pink Sugar Salon, owner Alexis Donavan, Class of 2023

Dick Schremmer had this bench made and put in the entrance to the High School

We put this out by the highway during All School Reunion time, Felix donated by
Chuck and Janet Kirsch Gray and hay bale provided by the Meyeres family.

Also a huge shout out to everyone from Chase and elsewhere that donated to help with this project.

This is the park taken March 2015. Trees aren't the same since that ice storm.

The older part of the High school with the new sign, old sign in photo above.

The Office ( we have redone that red background in the trophy case since then)

Looking down the hall outside the gym to down
where the Algebra and typing class rooms were.

The old gym, lots of dances held here, we also held the 2024 BBQ here. These two murals were added
since this photo was taken.

David Peebler made a trip to Great Bend and on the way back cruised through Chase and
went down memory lane. He has shared the following 17 photos he took that day--enjoy.

Hard to believe this was principals office.
Principals office is now at the end of the hall which Dave believes was an English room
when he was in school in the 50s. It is now elementary building rather than Jr. High.
It has been moved to High School. Jr High through 12 in the same building.

This mural was added to the top of the bleacher section on the left side of the photo,
beneath the windows.

Dave says all of us that played football and BB remember this dressing room in the HS.
Benches run in a different direction now.

Sorry, this was the only picture I could find of this building. I think it housed the 5th & 6th grades. This is Class of 1964.
UPDATE--Frances got a nice email from Jack Schroeder, Class of 1948 on June 1st. He added some history to this building saying that it also housed the 3rd & 4th grades and he attended all four grades there. Leo Rogers was principal at the time.

Anyone remember going out on the highway towards Lyons and
making a turn around here. I think it was called Rollies?

St Mary's Catholic School--now home of Chase Agri-Credit Systems, Inc.
Thanks, Frances for getting this.

Frances Heine took these shots of The Christian Church & The Catholic Church which are both closed now
