MSO DONATION INFORMATION: Visit https://id267.securedata.net/pearyhs/donation.htm Thank you for your continued support of the Midnight Sun Online!

Credit Card Donations: Our apologies for the company that services our merchant account - apparently, “IICS-DC BBS” has been appearing on some alum’s statements, causing some of you to question the charge (that business was dissolved almost 5 years ago).  The problem is currently being looked-into.... to correct this to “Netvision.”

THANK YOU: To those of you who have included my family and me in your prayers as my mom went through her first chemo treatments recently.  As a result, many photos have been delayed from being posted on the MSO website (Suds & Sun, the 1977/1976 Reunion, Peary Running Club, etc.).  Appreciate your patience.  Also a special thank-you to the three alums who personally assisted me and my mom on October 5th in Las Vegas: Gale Senseman Privette, Jim Privette, and Debbie Burkhead - all Class of 1966.
