HFHS Spring Dinner

We are pleased to announce that our 2024 Spring Dinner will be held the evening of May 17th at the North Oaks Golf Club. The social hour will begin at 5:30 PM with dinner at 6:30 PM. Following the dinner we will hear from our guest speaker, author and historian Jim Stolpestad. Mr. Stolpestad is author of Great Northern Iron: James J. Hill’s 109-Year Mining Trust. This is a fascinating story about the Great Northern Iron Ore Properties Trust, the brainchild of James J. Hill and his son in response to the Federal Government’s trust-busting efforts personally directed by President Teddy Roosevelt.  Two long-time residents of North Oaks played important roles in the creation and termination of the Trust. One in creation of the trust and one in the termination of the trust

Register for the Spring dinner below.

Spring dinner cost is $50 per person for HFHS members. $55 per person for non members and guests of HFHS members. Please RSVP by May 10th.
