Dear 1974 Hemlock Huskies,
On behalf of Hemlock Public School District, we’re honored to invite the members of the undefeated 1974 Hemlock High School football team to a special celebration of our community’s legacy and future.
Grand Opening & Ribbon Cutting | Wallace Field and Krueger Track

Your class—seniors from the ’74 team who graduated in ’75—played under the leadership of Coach Bob Wallace and Coach Don Krueger. It’s only fitting that you join us to cut the ribbon on the facilities that now bear their names.
