Coleville memories live on

By Joan Janzen

This photo in the Clarion archives might bring back some memories. Back on the weekend of July 30 to August 2, 1993, the Schmidt sisters got into the spirit of the Coleville School Reunion. They were among 500 former students who gathered at Coleville for the Roseville School reunion. At that time a cairn was unveiled at the site of the old school (later became Sam’s General Trucking). Randy Sawchuk had built the cairn using bricks from the old school which had been originally constructed in 1921. It closed in 1970 when Roseville School was built.

During a school reunion in Coleville, held July 30 - Aug. 2, 1993, the Schmidt sisters outfitted themselves in their proper order. No. 1 - Diane Keller, No. 3 - Sheila Punter, No. 4 - Jeanette Martin, No. 5 - Bonnie Dunn. No. 2 - Luvina Etsell (missing) was in attendance but was taking care of reunion duties.
