EPISODE #19

I thought it would be fun to “interview” a woman from the past….

Since this is the middle of July and Regatta season in Astoria, we’ll listen to Lauri Serafin talk about Alli Forsstrom,

the 14th Regatta queen. You’ll see some differences in how things work now with the court, as opposed to how it was in the beginning.

I’ve also included clips from Melissa Grothe’s interview, episode # 19, another Regatta queen, where she tells some of what goes into making a queen and the benefits of being in the court.

You can find out more on Lauri’s website where you can see photos and read an article on Alli’s life as well as follow along with Lauri and her husband’s remodeling journey of the Forsstrom house.

If you think you have an interesting story or know someone you think would be a great interview, send me a message on my website- jan-johnson.com.
