RHS Class of 1977 35th Reunion Fundraising

If you would like to be remembered in the Reunion Program with RHS Football, please use this button to donate. Our 35th Reunion will be the weekend of July 20-22 2012.

Becky Deetz came up with this fine idea of allowing groups of individuals to donate as one, for example the RHS Football team. Everyone in a group would do this by clicking on the specific PayPal button on the web site home page or the same one located on this blog. In either case for the Football team, the button is located underneath Tom Thurston's picture. The same holds true if you would like to contribute and be remembered as a member of the UHAAA (Uncle Harry Ahearn Admiration Association). ((See below.))

Everyone who contributes to a group would be mentioned in the Reunion program in the specific group they have designated, no matter what they donate. Becky's idea is that we concentrate on making the occasion of our 35th Reunion a success, and not on how much people are donating. Please let us know about ideas for creating groups other than the two that have been mentioned.

We do mention individuals and businesses on our web site who give more than $200 in cash, prizes or supplies. They are referred to as Patrons, but nothing is said about the size of anyone's contribution to a group.

As an FYI, we have prioritized our Reunion Weekend expenditures and are first taking care of necessities like the deposits for the Marriott Park Ridge, The Stable, and liability insurance for the Sunday Picnic at The Stable.

We are also making provisions for door prizes, swag bags, a printed program, and anything that Jimmy Velardi says he needs for the Alumni All-Star Band on Friday night. We would like to also pay for the food at the picnic and buy specially designed t-shirts for the RHS Ambassadors to wear, who will be giving us a tour of RHS on Saturday morning. These just so happen to be on sale in the RHS Class of 1977 online store CafePress. As you can tell we have a big list and we will need the support of everyone. Though I cannot mention enough that we will take care of the needs first, then concentrate on the frills.
