With the passing of the bond and the process in place to build new schools in Vernonia... a small group of alumni is working to create an avenue for ALL ALUMNI to be involved. There will be a meeting January 12th 7:00pm at Washington Grade School (room #19).
We will discuss how we can show our support... Fundraisers for a court yard, trees, trophy case, memory wall, any ideas are welcome. For those who are close and can attend please mark your calendar. For those far away... watch here for updates on how you can join our cause!!!!! |

We had about 10 people show up for our meeting about fund raising efforts by the Vernonia Alumni to go towards the new Schools. I believe that our official name is "The Alumni & Friends of Vernonia Schools". This group includes anyone that attended school in Vernonia, as well as spouses or parents of anyone that attended school in Vernonia.
We had one or two ideas mentioned but would like to have more input and ideas at the next meeting.
One thing mentioned was the possibility of having a HUGE reunion of ALL Vernonia Schools Alumni to take place on the third Sunday in August (15th) to coincide with the annual picnic known as the "Old Timers" picnic. Still discussing ways to make this a fund raiser and fun things to do. Anybody have any input? Like the idea.... don't like the idea.... whatever....
The next meeting is schedule for Wednesday, February 17th, 7:00 at WGS. Hope to see more faces there. |
