DeWitt, Pam, Dwight J, Shaylynn and Casey Mack from Mandan spent the week-end at Dwight Mack’s.

Marlo and Zoe Zaderaka, along with a little red headed five year old ‘peppy’ boy, Garrett Goodman, from Bismarck spent the week-end at Eugene Zaderaka’s. Saturday evening they all attended “A Magical Winter’ ice skating show in Minot. Mark and Lori Zaderaka’s daughter, Emily, took part in this performance.

Connie Fetzer Busch’s two daughters also took part. Janice Fetzer was there to see them perform. Connie sewed many of the beautiful outfits the skaters wore. It was a beautiful, professional program and all the skaters were wonderful.

Sunday, April 2 Immaculate Conception Catholic Church in Max will be having their annual Spaghetti and Meatball Dinner from 11:30 until 1:30. Along with this they will be serving salad and topping the meal off with bars and Spumoni ice cream!

Committees gave reports with the Souvenir committee reporting sales have been slow; Parade committee reports that many have sent in their forms to be in the parade.

Many orders have come in for the Max History Book. Remember, if you prepay by May 15 th you save.

Housing was discussed at Monday night’s meeting. The Campground by the Tennis Court/Play Ground will be First Come First Serve. This small campground has hook-ups. Also available for self-contained units will be the Rodeo Grounds, directly below this campground. This too is First Come First Serve. No reservations will be made for either of these locations. Some are arranging to park in their relative’s yards. Information on accommodations in the nearby town of Garrison will come in the next Alumni letter, soon to be mailed out.

The Max web-site will soon have a complete schedule of all the Centennial Celebration events. Keep watch!
