By the way, it looks like you got a Big-League signature along the top of your program-- the late Craig "Mongo" Kusick of the Twins. Nice.
Edited to add: I see sigs of Mike Poepping and Jim Hughes too, who both made it to the Twins. Hughes and Kusick had Topps baseball cards, as did Dan Vossler (1974 Rookies), who also signed your program, even though he never made it.

Whoever got the autographs got all but 2 of the St Cloud Rox team.
We have had a few minor league teams in our little town.
1920+21 Huron Packers Bill Shipke(has a T206 card) played his last season here in 1920.
1965-1968 Huron Phillies In 1968 we had Larry Cox, Greg Luzinski, and Manny Trillo on the team.
1969+70 Huron Cubs Rick Reuschel played his first year here in 1970.
1994 Huron Heaters
Sadly I never got to see a single one of those games. I was only 1yo when the Cubs left and was working in Missouri in 94.
