Lind High School Alumni Banquet

March, 2013

The members of the Lind Alumni Association met recently to plan the annual Alumni Banquet and meeting. The Banquet will be professionally catered. We have again chosen Cathy Jo's Catering to cater the banquet this year. The Banquet will be held at the Lind High School gymnasium on May 11, 2013 at 6:30 p.m. As there is no open house, please make plans with your classmates if you wish to meet before the banquet.

Guaranteed reservations need to be in May 3rd. Limited reservations can be made at the door, but not guaranteed.

The price of the dinner will remain at $18.50. We have had suggestions during the past several years regarding the dinner and have taken the suggestions into consideration. We appreciate your comments.

In addition to the banquet meal, there will be introductions of the honored classes, and the awarding of  scholarships to members of the Senior Class of 2013. All Alumni are invited to attend the banquet with a spouse or a guest. Also, past or present teachers are welcome, so if you know of a teacher who would like to attend, please let us know.

Please note, the Ritzville Journal will be in the gym before the banquet to take pictures of the honored classes for the newspaper. They will begin at 5:30 in the gym. Please be sure to let your classmates know.

Alumni dues remain at $7.00 for each Alumnus. Dues must be paid before attending the dinner. Please make checks payable to the Lind Alumni Association and mail to PO Box 444, Lind, WA 99341-0444. Name tags and programs may be picked up at the entrance to the gym.

If you are not able to attend the banquet, it would be appreciated if you could pay the Annual Dues of $7.00 each year. The money from the dues is used to defray the cost of mailings, dinners for the senior class, supplies for the banquet, etc. We have been running in the red previous years, and if we continue showing a "red" balance at the end of the year it is possible we may have to discontinue the banquet.

We will again be presenting the Virginia Moorman Moore scholarship(s) along with the Alumni Scholarship. It is a pleasure to present scholarships to young graduates. If you wish to continue supporting the scholarship fund, please include it on your reservation form or mail your donation to the Lind Alumni Association PO Box 444, Lind, WA 99341-0444. All scholarships will remain with students that reside in the Lind school district.

RESERVATIONS WILL CLOSE May 3rd 2013. We will a total of meals for the caterer by this date. We must have received your reservation, either by phone or by mail, by May 3rd. Limited reservations can be made at the door, but not guaranteed.
