I remember when that school was lost to fire. I was in the 4th grade I think. I lived on Irving street at the time. This street is near the Red Lion Hotel that was across the street from the original KFC built in the 60's. Wagners store was also nearby. I love Bend too. Our family had to move when our father lost his job at the mill in 1968. I didn't come back to Bend until I was attending Baker High. We traveled there when we played against the Lava Bears. We lost 26 to 13. They were motivated to win that game because the previous year we had beaten them 13 to 7. Thier only loss that year I believe. I was sad to see the lodge, that was near mirror pond, had been demolished. Yea I love Bend. Would like to buy a Bend Lava Bears T shirt. Havent found one yet. Thanks for the Website. Brings back some great memories. Don Sorenson H E Allen School. I remember when that school was lost to fire. I was in the 4th grade I think. I lived on Irving street at the time.
