MINNEOTA YEARBOOK STAFF MINNEOTA MINNESOTA 56264 L986 - 1987 Minneota High School VIKING VENTURES Advisor: Mr. Jon Narveson Co-editors: Anita Hennen and Kathie Wyffels In Memory Of Loren Olberding Loren Olberding, who served as Elementary Principal and Special Education Director from 1982 to August, 1986 will be fondly remembered for his professionalism and commitment to education. Mr. Olberding brought sincerity, compassion, thoughtfulness, and sensitivity to our school. He often spoke warmly of his association with the Minneota School and commented on the spirit and cooperation he found here. The memory of his smile, laughter, and sense of humor will always remain with us. To quote a tribute given at the time of his death, Mr. Olberding was a man who tried hard to please more than to be pleased, who tried to help more than to be helped, who worried more about others than he worried about himself, and who always gave more of himself than he expected to receive.” 2 UNDERCLASSMEN Seventh Grade CLASS OF 92 Chris Ahlschlager Stephanie Askdal Lisa Boerboom Eric Buysse Sonja DeSmet David Esping Jon Fadness Bernard Fink Kennedy Gilbertson Amy Hasert Brian Jeremiason Cindy Karlstad Derek Moorse Chad Muhl 4 Ericka Grengs Noel Hasert Adam Heaton Shantele Hettling Heather Heise Deanna Howard Sarah Huston Brad Jeremiason Vanessa Miller Debbie Myrvik Marvin Prellwitz Darwyn Roles Dona Skaar Stuart Smith Chad Stegner Eighth Grade CLASS OF 91 Vicky Wenker Freshmen Class Class Of 90 David Dovre John Engels Mary Engels Jennifer Fadness Tom Gislason Rick Gossen Dale Guttormsson Stephen Guza Missy Hancock Eric Heaton Gina Hennen Martin Hennen Mike Huston Janet Johnson Shane Johnson Sarah Lanners Karyn Lien Laurie Longtin Sandy Loyson Debi Moorse Greg Moorse Jason Pohlen Tony Prinsen Leann Rabaey Jon Rokeh Julie Smith Michelle Sussner Glen VanHecke Kerri VanMeveren Scott VanOverbeke Jenny Vlaminck Mark Vlaminck Chanda Wohnoutka V 6 J Chris Claeys Kristen Claeys Steve Coequyt Greg DeSmet Lorna DeSmet Troy DeSmet Tim DeVlaeminck Sue Bottelberghe Patti Breyfogle Bradley Brooks Craig Buysse Sara Buysse Bich Thuy Callens Charlie Callens Anh Chau Attendants 86 7 Sophomore Class CLASS OF 89 Anjie Finnegan Mark Fonteyn Chad Full Angie Grengs Adam Hall Wayne Hailing Cindy Hegg Stacy Heise Eric Hennen Jodi Hennen Jeana Hostetler Bill Johnson Jason Johnson Scott Johnson Kelly Josephson Jody Kompelien Cindy Larson James Lien Alan Longtin Troy Muhl Wade Myhre Pam Obe Kathy Opdahl Sara Pagel Terri Polejewski Jessica Salisbury Shelli Smith Jerry Storlien Anita Swedzinski Dennis Swedzinski Mark Tillemans Rachel Timp Kris VanKeulen Boyd VanVooren Clinton Wambeke John Wambeke Craig Windey Jeremy Haugen 8 Jean Arends Lance Boer boom Carl Bot Amy Bulander Curt Buysse Chris Carlson Quyen Chau Wayne Davis Paul DeSmet Traci DeSutter Trina DeSutter Sherri Doom LaVonne Downing Byron Driemeyer Tony Esping Attendants 86 OFFICERS 9 Junior Class CLASS OF 88 Carmen Fonteyn Mike Fox Caren Cawarecki Tracy Goslar Sheldon Guza Anita Hennen Wayne Hennen Sandra Hoffman Tim Hunt Jeff Johnson Jill Johnson Corey Kack Greg Kimpe Kim LeGare Susie Lyson Chris Meidt Mark Moorse Sandy Pearson Steve Polchow Lorelei Regnier Dusty Richter Brian Rogge Deb Sharp Stephanie Smith Tim Stegner Kelly Swedzinski Pam Thielges Gabe Timp Steve VanKeulen Brett VanVooren Terri Wambeke Kathie Wyffels 10 Mike Anderson Tracy Annett Erich Bakke Cheryl Berre Pam Bretschneider Heather Brooks Brian Buysse Kristen Buysse 11 Officers Ness Electric Motor Service 212 West College Drive Marshall, Mn 532-2480 Taunton Co-op Elevator Elevator: 872-6161 Feed Mill: 872-5292 Taunton, Mn £e$'v(m £ a eves 208 N.
