Pat Winter Oakes in 1971 had the idea of having a combined Winter Family and Brown Family reunion. The idea was embraced by both families. A guiding principle of the reunion was that it would be held every two years and would be located at a different site. Sites with particular appeal were repeated. The reunion would also be at a location that had interesting activities for adults and children. A high priority was a large kitchen and dining room capable of handling common lunch and dinner meals. If possible, camp sites would be nearby for the convenience of families wishing to camp. Due to the heat of summer, we avoided southern location, unless in the mountains. Highlight of the reunion was the talent show. Both adults and kids treated everyone to musical performances, dances, recitations, etc. The show would close with the crowning of the "Most Improved Relative", an invention of Robert Winter. To say the reunions were a success would be an understatment. For nearly forty years, the reunions thrived and were only discontinued due to many of the teens and college aid students having summer jobs and attending camps. Pat Oakes arranged most of the reunions, a Herculean task. The first was held at the YMCA of the Rockies in Estes Park, Colorado. The lodge and cabins had a spectacular view of the mountains and valley below. There were many activities for all age groups. Below is a gallery of these reunions. We hope many generations will enjoy the fond memories these photos evoke.

7/20/07 Soudon Mine in Tower, MN--level #27--2341 feet below the surface--689 feet below sea level
10/20/07 Jessamy, Mardie, and Sarah deep underground in the Soudon Mine in Tower, MN
10/20/07 At the Soudon Mine in Tower, MN--Mel, Pat, Mardie, Sarah, and Jessamy ready to go underground
The Tower Mine in Tower, MN
7/16/07 MINOS Experiment in The Tower Iron Mine in Tower, MN
The Main Injector Neutrino Oscillation Search (MINOS) was located half a mile underground in the historic Soudan Iron MineÂ
Front face of the MINOS far detector is on the left and on the right is a mural by Joseph Giannetti.
Main injector neutrino oscillation search (MINOS) was a particle physics experiment designed to study the phenomena of neutrino oscillations, first discovered by a Super-Kamiokande (Super-K) experiment in 1998. Neutrinos produced by the NuuMI("Neutrinos at Main Injector") beamline a Femilab near Chicago are observed at two detectors, one very close to where the beam is produced (the near detector), and another much larger detector 735 km away in norther Minnesota (the far detector).
The MINOS experiment started detecting neutrinos from the NuMI beam in February 2005. On 30 March 2006, the MINOS collaboration announced that the analysis of the initial data, collected in 2005, is consistent with neutrino oscillations, with the oscillation parameters which are consistent with Super-K measurements.MINOS received the last neutrinos from the NUMI beam line at midnight on 30 April 2012. It was upgraded to MINOS+ which started taking data in 2013. The experiment was shut down on June 29, 2016, and the far detector has been dismantled and removed
7/16/07 The Tower Iron Mine in Tower, MN--Sarah, Aaron, Theresa, and Alicia ready to go underground!
The tour includes the old iron mine and the MINOS physics experiment.
7/16/07 MINOS in The Tower Iron Mine in Tower, MN. Face of the 27 ft neutrino diameter detctor in the middle.
The MINOS Laboratory is 270 feet long, approximately 50 feet wide and 40 feet high. About 50,000 tons of rock was excavated to make this cavity. All of the rock was taken up the elevator, 6 tons at a time. Most of the rock was piled on the surface southeast of the headframe; some of it was used to build the parking lot west of the engine house. Behind the face we see is about feet of large iron plates.
Where do the neutrinos come from? Most of the neutrinos that the MINOS Far Detector will observe will be produced at the Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory. The Fermilab Main Injector will produce an intense beam of protons with an energy of 120 billion electron volts. This beam will be directed at a special graphite target. Many of the beam protons will interact in the target and some will produce other sub-atomic particles called π mesons. The π mesons will travel down an 675 m (2,200 foot) vacuum pipe. While traveling down the vacuum pipe, most of the π mesons will decay and produce neutrinos and other particles called μ mesons. Some of the μ mesons will also decay and also produce neutrinos. A 10 m (33 foot) thick iron absorber at the end of the vacuum pipe followed by a 240 m (800 foot) rock berm will absorb all particles in the beam other than neutrinos. The neutrinos will mostly continue straight through the iron and the earth and begin their 735 km (about 450 mile) journey to Soudan.
7/16/07 Air Compressor for The Tower Iron Mine in Tower, MN
The air compressor provided the drills, tuggers, and Eimco loaders with the compressed air they needed to operate. The unit was manufactured by Worthington and it dates back to 1924 when the mine converted from steam to electricity. It is a two stage, water cooled, compressor that yielded about 2900 CFM. The power for the compresser is rated at 500 horse power. The air is sent to tanks underground by a 6 inch pipe.
