10 Things you don’t know about me… Terri Rein

Every week we ask an area resident to give us 10 interesting facts about themselves. This week we spoke to Terri Rein, St Joseph-Ogden guidance counselor and girls cross country coach.

My favorite childhood memory is  growing up on the farm and being able to ride motorcycles and horses (because that is what my older brother and sister did!!)

I always carry my phone and Burts Bees chapstick.

The best advice I have ever been given is to ENJOY THE JOURNEY!!!!

My first pet was named Snoopy.

My happiest moments as an adult have been getting married and being a Momma!!!

I like the the family atmosphere and culture of cross country.

The best thing about being a coach is absolutely the kids!!!  They work so hard!


I just read “The Things We Cannot Say: by Kelly Rimmer, it was really good!!

My favorite class in high school was psychology.

I prefer to binge watch series like Jack Ryan or Ozark.
