SAISD FOUNDATION FUNDRAISER

FOR THE 50TH REUNION, THE COMMITTEE ORGANIZED A FUNDRAISER WITH THE SAISD FOUNDATION TO GIVE A LEGACY GIFT FROM OUR CLASS TO OUR ALMA MATER.  MANY THANKS TO ALL WHO PURCHASED THE $100 TICKETS FOR THIS GREAT ENDEAVOR!!  OUR CLASS RAISED $5,275 FOR THE FOUNDATION WHICH WILL BE A GIFT TO TJHS!  AFTER MUCH DISCUSSION AND EVALUATION OF HOW THE MOST STUDENTS AT TJHS CAN BENEFIT FROM OUR LEGACY GIFT, THE COMMITTEE DECIDED TO USE THE FUNDS RAISED AS FOLLOWS:

1.     A CONCRETE TABLE AND 3 BENCHES TO BE PLACED IN THE COURTYARD AREA IN FRONT OF THE SCHOOL.  THE TABLE WILL BE INSCRIBED WITH OUR CLASS MOTTO, “TOGETHER TODAY, TOMORROW, AND ALWAYS”, “CLASS OF 1973”.  THE 3 BENCHES WILL BE INSCRIBED WITH “CLASS OF 1973”.  TWO BENCHES WILL BE PLACED WITH THE TABLE AND THE OTHER BENCH WILL BE IN THE SAME AREA.  COST - $2,773.00

2.     THE REMAINDER OF THE FUNDS WILL BE DONATED TO THE TJHS LIBRARY FOR THE PURCHASE OF BOOKS.  MANY BOOKS WERE LOST DURING THE PANDEMIC, AND NO FUNDS ARE AVAILABLE TO REPLACE THEM.

WE WANT TO THANK SOUTHWEST AIRLINES FOR THEIR DONATION OF FLIGHT VOUCHERS (COORDINATED BY JOE FLORES) AND TO BRUCE AND BARBARA BURGER FOR THEIR DONATION OF THEIR VACATION HOME IN FORT DAVIS, TEXAS.  THESE GIFTS HELPED IN RAISING THE FUNDS FOR OUR LEGACY GIFT!

$ 5 RAFFLE HELD DURING THE SATURDAY NIGHT EVENT AT THE QUARRY

WE EXTEND A SINCERE THANK YOU TO ALL OF THE CLASSMATES AND COMPANIES THAT DONATED ITEMS FOR OUR RAFFLE. THE FUNDS RAISED FROM THIS RAFFLE HELPED TO COVER REUNION EXPENSES SO THAT WE COULD KEEP THE COST OF ATTENDING THE SATURDAY NIGHT EVENT AS REASONABLE AS POSSIBLE.  ALSO, THESE FUNDS ARE PROVIDING THE AMOUNT NEEDED TO KEEP OUR WEBSITE ALIVE FOR THE NEXT YEAR.
