I remember it happened in 1985. Wasn't it around the Des Moines Art Center? Is there any kind of monument or anything in memory of those that died?

There were memorials set up on the Veenker golf course (a plaque) where they had meets. There were also trees planted in the honor of those that died on the course (I'm not sure which hole). When the cross country course was completed, there was an additional memorial set up there as well.

It landed in the front yard of a family friends home (from what my parents told me). -Just north of the Arts Center off of Grand Ave. I have a vague memory of the details but I remember all the windows being blown out and the family thinking an atomic bomb went off.
Was it the CC or track team? Sad story. I'm not positive but I don't think there is a monument. Could be wrong though, sure have been before.

What made think of it..I really dont know. I'm just sitting here at work, and was wondering where the crash actually took place and if there was some type of memorial at the location.
