Waldorf University is excited to announce the dedication of the Bolstorff and Beebe Gateway on Saturday, October 5, at 9:30 a.m. The ceremony will take place at Bolstorff Field/Beebe Track, with Boman Auditorium as the rain location. 

This event honors the lifelong contributions of Dave and Donna Bolstorff and Ray and Joan Beebe to both Waldorf and the Forest City community. Denny Jerome, former Waldorf coach and Athletic Director, emphasized the importance of this tribute and has done extensive work both with donors as well as coordinating much of the production of the sign.

“The Gateway project has become an attractive addition to the Waldorf Athletic Complex,” says Jerome. “It is a deserving tribute for the Bolstorff and Beebe families.”

The gateway features a design that mirrors the athletic W sign on corner of John K. Hanson Dr., symbolizing community pride and unity. Local support through charitable gifts, along with contributions of time and materials from Waldorf facilities, has made this project possible.

We invite everyone to join us for this celebratory occasion, honoring the Bolstorff and Beebe families, alongside their friends and family members. Don't miss this special moment in our community!
