TIME FOR GOLF. The 2013 TCU-Superintendent’s Scholarship Golf Tournament will take place Wednesday, May 15, 2013. We’re moving
the tournament this year to the Elbel Golf Course. We’re also adding an optional hole-in-one tournament. To enter a team, become a hole sponsor, or donate a raffle prize, contact the Alumni Association office at 283-8153. All proceeds from the tournament benefit South Bend students with scholarships and grants.
The Alumni Association is offering raffle tickets as part of its annual Golf Tournament. Tickets enter you in a drawing for prizes, but better than that, give you an immediate return of a free car wash and $5 off on dry cleaning at any Burton’s dry cleaners. Money raised is used to help fund $25,000 in scholarships annually. If you are interested contact the South Bend Alumni Association at sbaa@sbcsc.k12.in.us, or call the office at (574) 283-8153. There is no expiration on the car wash and a December 31, 2013, expiration on dry cleaning. Tickets are $5 each or six for $20. If there is a better deal (or cause) anywhere…..take it.

The process has begun for planning the annual Community Hall of Fame, scheduled for November 12 at Century Center. Individuals selected for induction are being notified now, along with those chosen for other awards at the banquet. Names will be announced once all of the honorees have been notified. The Hall was created 26 years ago by the Alumni Association to honor the men and women who have distinguished themselves and made a difference in our community or in the communities they now call home. Go to the Hall of Fame link on the left side of this page for further information about how to nominate someone.

If you are the relative or friend of a serviceman killed in the Vietnam War, check out the posting in the Member Musings section of this web site. A retired Air Force veteran from Greenfield, Ind., is helping to secure pictures that can be displayed in the Education Center of the Vietnam Veterans Memorial Wall in Washington, D.C. Contact information is included with the posting, along with a list of the local names of those killed in the war.

WE DO NEED YOUR HELP!
You can help to make this site informative and interesting. Please submit your photos and news items about yourself, your classmates, your activities and your memories. If we don’t have a ’page’ location to post it we will create one. Surf through the menu at the left and see what your Alumni Association is about. We want you to be proud of your school and community and to become a part of its legacy.
As our site grows, we plan to include more information about each high school ( past and present) and we hope someday soon to add a directory of members.
We would like your opinions on how we can improve this site. All you have to do is hit the e-mail button above on the menu bar and write your suggestions.
