Congratulations to Phyllis Masella, the lucky winner of our Red Sox Ticket Raffle

Thank You to everyone that took part in the raffle to help us raise funds for our scholarship program. Phyllis may have won an afternoon at Fenway Park to watch one of the greatest baseball teams to ever play the game, but it is the students that receive scholarships funded through these find raisers and the opportunity for continued education and success, that are the real winners.

Aug 21 is set for the Alumni and Friends Golf Tournament and Dinner. This is the largest fundraising event of the year for the Alumni and Friends of Lynn Classical High School. It’s also the most important event for the association and your support is needed. This fundraiser will set the foundation for the 2011 scholarship fund that is used to create and distribute scholarships to deserving graduating seniors. I (Ed Stafford) can’t speak for everyone, but Classical gave me the tools, confidence and education, setting me on a path for a reasonably successful future. Now that I’m here, fulfilling my dreams, I haven’t forgotten where I came from and who helped me get here. Because of that, I’m more than happy to give back in any way I can so that other Classical Grads can also continue down that path to success. The bonus here is that not only am I contributing to a great and worthy cause, but I’ll be doing it with a great day of golf and dinning with family, friends and maybe meet some new people at the same time.

Please consider spending the day with us or even just an evening dinner to support The Alumni Association and help pave the way to success for Classical Grads.

Fore!!

UPDATE:

August 21st is just around the corner! If you have not registered for the tournament yet, be sure to do so As Soon As Possible to secure your spot and allow us to get an accurate head count for the event.

Do you think you have what it takes to compete against some of the best golfers to never make the PGA tour? Then polish up the old clubs, get a few friends together, and save the date for August 21st, 2010.

If you’re not a golfer, or just want to observe and mingle, you can skip the tournament, come out and enjoy the company of others, and join us for dinner.

The Alumni and Friends Of Lynn Classical High School has secured a Golf Tournament and Dinner at Kelly Greens in Nahant MA. Proceeds will be used to support and fund our Scholarship Program.

We Need Your Support

In the past five years, thanks to the support and contributions of LCHS Alumni and Friends, we have distributed $271,978 in Scholarships to graduating seniors of Lynn Classical High School. Although our efforts to continue this trend are as strong as ever, the ability to sustain the scholarship program is suffering due to the increased cost and expenses needed run supporting programs and Newsletters. We are appealing to you for your assistance in helping Classical Graduates to a better life by receiving a strong educational foundation and an opportunity for education beyond high school.

Because of the fine education we received at Classical, many of us have gone on to be productive members of our communities. We have become Doctors, Lawyers, Educators, Police, Nurses, Firefighters, as well as many Graduates who have made their mark in government, private industry and business. You are the very people that we need to give back to deserving students of your high school alma mater, Lynn Classical High School.

If you have already assisted us in supporting Classical students, we thank you and ask you to continue your generous support. To our Life Members, we continue to thank you for your generous past support.

Please answer our appeal in one of the following ways:

• If you are already an Alumni Member, please renew it for the coming year.
• Become a new contributing member of Alumni & Friends of Lynn Classical High School by filling out the Donation Application available here for download.
• Make a simple donation in any amount of your choice.
• Consider becoming a Named Scholarship donor in the amount of $500.00 or more.

Named scholarships can be submitted as a group. Get some family members together or classmates and name your own scholarship.
