Sylvia Kralik:
Hello,Do you have pictures to share of past reunions, activities, and the lake etc from Yonkipin?I have an old picture of a Frisco Railroad picnic that was taken at Yonkipin in the early 20's. My grandfather, Dennis Wortman was a Frisco Engineer.I have searched many years, off and on for Yonkipin (all the old folks are gone now)so I had nothing but the name to go by and here is where I am embarassed - it's practically in my own back yard. We live southwest of Catoosa.I used askjeeves.com where Yonkipin Lake is located and up popped your site. I about fainted. ha.My husband and I are going to try to find it next weekend. Will you please advise the directions from Catoosa to Yonkipin Lake?Must be a wonderful place. Seems there were a lot of Frisco picnic's there.Thank you very much.P.S. I know this is too long to use, please feel free to edit it.Again, thanks.Sylvia Wortman Kraliksylviakralik@sbcglobal.net
