NORTHERN STATE EVENTS From Jerde Hall their paths led all over the country, but these ladies have remained close friends, getting together every year at different locations. This year they gathered at NSU to celebrate Gypsy Day 2017 by touring Jerde Hall, dining at the Wolves Den, watching the parade, tailgating with other alumni and cheering on the Wolves football team. It was another memorable weekend to add to those which began at NSU! Pictured from left to right: Grace Thomas Christianson, S.D. (’75), Pat Gab Grenz, S.D. (’76) June Dix Wheeler, S.D.
