A great weekend of events planned to coincide with NFA tournament.

A block of area hotel rooms have been reserved at discounted rates for those attending this reunion event. A list of official tournament hotels is available. Alumni are encouraged to stay at The Chateau to better facilitate gatherings at one location. The overflow hotel for alumni is the Holiday Inn.
Sorry to say I’m committed to some activities at the American Educational Research Association meeting in New Orleans. I have fond memories of participating in ISU forensics activities in the mid-1960’s. It was a pleasure to work with Stan Reeves our faculty advisor and coach and partner with Bill Hahn and other members of the our ISU teams in 1965 and 1966. Wish I could be able to be in two places at the same time and help out with the national tournement.
