An MVAC memory from Jean Lund, Onalaska, WI
My first 'adventure in archaeology' was volunteering with the Midway dig in 1988. (I had Summers off, teen-age kids, and finally decided to do something I had always been intrigued with.) What an amazing introduction to this fascinating world it turned out to be. Later digs included Pammel Creek, the Gundersen Site, and others. It was such a privilege to work with Drs Gallagher, Theler, Boszhardt, Rodell, and Arzigian. The senior archaeology students were always so kind and helpful to us 'older folks'. I believe they mirrored the excellent scientific training of their teachers but also their teachers' respect and appreciation for the entire crew.
