Hi Everyone~~
April came in loud with tornado warnings around our area and to the north. Thank the good Lord nothing touched down altho there were some sightings of rotation around Salina area. We got much needed rain, a light show and a little hail here at the Cole Casa in Hutchinson, KS.
Five of your committee members were able to meet in Chaseamerica to stuff envelopes with newsletters last Saturday March 29th. Chuck & Janet Kirsch Gray, Marilyn Dupont, Gerald & Sherry Bliss Cole. We stuffed approximately 950 envelopes. Marilyn Dupont was going to mail them from Chase Monday or Tuesday. Give it a little time and if you don't receive one, we probably don't have your address or a current one and it is on the way back to us. Thank you to Tammy Kizzar and her wonderful band of helpers who had them folded for us and ready to stuff. We had a brief meeting before the stuffing and a, as always, yummy lunch at Kats Korner . At the meeting we scheduled our next meeting for November and hopefully by then I can have information on a Homecoming date and the new hotel going up in Hutchinson. I am pretty antsy as by now I usually have the date for the homecoming, hotel booked and the banquet booked. Patience Sherry, patience.
Stay happy, stay healthy and above all, show the love and have fun. We value you!!!
Until next time--

Thank you to Shelley White, secretary of the High School for the donation of 6 yearbooks we were in need of for the cabinet in the High School. Four more and I think we will have every yearbook from the year 1941 down that there was a yearbook. We even have 1925 year.
Thank you for the donation of the 1971 yearbook!
We would like to thank Gerald Fiedler and Kay Kopfman Thrall for donating yearbooks at the 2017 All School Reunion. We would like to thank Betty Browning Fulton, Class of 1944 for donating a 1941 yearbook to the alumni.
We thank Rhonda Clayton David for donating her yearbooks to the Association. The ones that were needed will be put in the cabinet at the High School for all to enjoy.
Thank you, Betty Browning Fulton - 1944 for letting us know there were no yearbooks in the years 1942, 1943 & 1944 due to the war.
We are in need of a yearbook
to fill in a empty space in our cabinets at the school. These are on display
for all to see so if you have an extra one or just want to donate yours to the
Alumni we would be grateful. If you want to donate the following year,
contact Sherry Cole.

Just a note to that, if you have any of your yearbooks of any year, please don't throw them away, we take them as well. We also have yearbooks on hand if you are needing one. All of these are free unless there is postage to mail to you and you pay that. The list of what we have is on the Kats Kraft Shoppe page. Thank you.

FROM PAST UPDATES: March 1, 2025 Hi Everyone~~ Here we are into March, coming in like a lamb, guess we know what that means. Kansas winds can sure play havoc sometimes so not looking forward to going out like a lion. We also have a weather report that maybe snow/rain Tuesday. NOOOO! So done with snow, rain would be OK. This bears repeating-------We are working on getting the 2025 March Newsletter written up. Don't forget to let me know your current address if you have moved since last March. With the price of stamps going up all the time, we want to make sure you get your newsletter. If you have any class reunions scheduled for after March, let me know and we will post it in there. If you have had one since last March let me know and I'll post that too. The committee is still working on the 2027 All School Reunion but not much to report right now. More in October when Hutchinson maybe gets that new hotel completed. i want to check it out for our next reunion. We could know then what the 2027 Homecoming date is too. That helps us pick a date for the reunion. We love to support our Chase Kats during homecoming so hope we can line it out. Stay happy, stay healthy and above all, show the love and have fun. We value you!!! Until next time-- Sherry Bliss Cole, Class of 1964 |
