After running into Jeff (Li'l Cruiser) Cook at a Saginaires reunion in 1990, we started dating (again!) and got married in 1992. Now we have 2 great kids who have adopted our habit of twirling everything we pick up.
Does anyone out there remember "The Bambino's: Reeno, Ceeno, Soono, Keeno and Deeno"?

I moved there after my first season marching and deeply regret not being able to return to march again. I am a furniture designer and sales rep. for Country Furniture by Schulers in Janesville. No kids (thank god) just cats. I loved my time with Northern Aurora and will always remember it. Any 1990 members feel free to e-mail me. I'd love to stroll down memory lane with you.
