Another Special Pre-Reunion Event............


Wisconsin Farm Boy Greets Extraterrestrials in Nevada Desert

a free program presented by Charles Hall

on Thursday, August 9, 2012
in the Community Room
of the Jack Russell Memorial Library
100 Park Avenue, Hartford, Wisconsin
(where we spent our first two years of high school)
Social Time with light refreshments - 6:30 P.M.

Wisconsin native Charles Hall enlisted in the United States Air Force on July 20, 1964. He was stationed at Nellis Air Force Base outside Las Vegas, Nevada, for over two years. While there, he served for extensive periods of time as a weather observer in the desert on the gunnery ranges at Indian Springs, Nevada. He has appeared on numerous radio shows and has been invited to worldwide conferences on extraterrestrial experiences.

Charles Hall just happens to be the husband of our very own classmate, Marie Therese (Reis) Hall.



Charles is the author of four books related to his experiences with extraterrestrials in the Nevada desert. He is a physicist with two separately copyrighted papers on "Hall Photon Theory" explaining why vehicles can travel faster than the speed of light. Putting this theory into practice would allow space travel over great, intergalactic distances.




According to their website, Millennial Hospitality, "Marie particularly liked Charles' memoirs because they did not attempt to prove the existence of extraterrestrials, but rather, could be read and enjoyed by anyone. They read like a novel and the reader can learn about how to be a better human being."




More information is available at their website, "Millennial Hospitality" at http://www.millennialhospitality.com/ 




On Monday, August 6th, at 9:45 AM, Hartford's WTKM Radio will be interviewing Marie Therese. Tune into 104.9 FM.


Marie will be introducing her husband, Charles, before Thursday's program. 


They will also bring a few of Charles' books for purchase and signing.


Here is a recent photo of "The Hall Clan" with only three family members missing from this photo session.



Hope you can arrive early for the "50th Reunion of the Class of '62" to meet with Marie and Charles, plus other classmates, at the beautiful, new Jack Russell Memorial Library which stands right where we spent our freshman and sophomore years at the old Hartford High School.
