If you want, bring digital pictures and we'll consolidate them into an electronic family album. Thanks Rich Woldt & Bill Becker

Attention! We know many might have to miss the reunion on the 23rd so on Sunday, July 1 we're going to try to meet at the Egg Harbor ballpark and watch the game between the Bailey's Harbor "A's" and the Egg Harbor "Indians!" Hope you can make one of these family events!

That's Fritz, six from the left, back row, at what appear to be a Woldt' get-together a year or 50 ago!

I remember.. Dad, (Roland August Ernst "Fritz" Woldt), saying "Rich, if you want to marry a woman you're not related to, you'd better look south of the Sturgeon Bay bridge." I thought he was kidding but after checking our family tree I guess he wasn't. I knew we were related to most bar owners in the county, because I grew up calling most of them Uncle Paul, Uncle Casey, Uncle Herman, Uncle Dick, etc. And Dad called the rest Cousin Ruthie, Cousin Larry, or Cousin in-law Earl or Lena or Carl. Dad was proud of being born in a backroom of the Sunrise bar in Jacksonport. Well you get the drift. Bill Becker and I have a ton of relatives so after discussing our shared heritage we decided it's time for another family reunion, and if possible a softball game. So we reserved the ballpark and sorted out the details to feed our branch of the clan and invite the rest to a late afternoon ball game. So...
