THE RE-ECHO
The Re-Echo newsletter is published quarterly by the St.
Louis Park Historical Society. It was established and
edited by Bob Reiss, who published it from 2002 until his untimely
death in August 2006. Its purpose is to acquaint the
members, volunteers and friends on how the activities,
programs, and resources of the Society are used to preserve
the history of St. Louis Park. The name was inspired by the
Echo newspaper published by and for the students of
the St. Louis Park High School since 1916.
The
following is a list of issues and articles that link to those articles. Please keep
in mind that situations may have changed since the
publication of the newsletter. Up to date information
can be found by consulting the website
Index.
