H.M.H.S. Auditorium
Needs Your Help.
| All graduate class members
are needed to help rejuvenate, restore, and renovate
|
| our HMHS auditorium!
Any alumni who have
visited the auditorium in recent
|
| years can attest
to the deteriorating condition of the sound system,
lighting, and |
|
curtain--the years have taken their toll
on the facility.
The time to help is now. |
| |
| “Lights, Camera, Action,” a
special fund created under the Haddonfield
Educa- |
|
tional Trust, has
already raised $40,000 toward a much-needed new
sound |
| system.
Many events take place in our
auditorium--musical and otherwise-- |
| and the
performers need a facility that can do
justice to their long hours of hard |
|
work enthusiasm and expertise.

NEWSLETTER
CHANGE
IMPLEMENTED.
In spring of 2005
we started E-mailing the Newsletter to everyone who provided
an
E-mail address to Alumni Research. Only those individuals for whom we
have
no
E-mail address will receive the Newsletter via conventional “snail
mail”. This
will enable us to reduce the cost of this semiannual
publication, which takes the
biggest chunk out of our budget.

CLASS GIFT PROCEDURES.
We have received many questions concerning how classes can "give back" to
HMHS and our present day students. Of course, one way is to send a check to support
the HAS Scholarship which is $1000 annually. The other way is to establish your own
Class Scholarship. Recently, the Class of 1956 decided to do this and established
their scholarship "For Further Education in Music". Their "Press Release" was
published in several of the local newspapers.
Click
à
HERE
ß
for the Class of '56 Press Release.
In spearheading the project for his class, Baird Foster did a lot of research and work
so he thought he would share it with other classes so they wouldn't have to reinvent the
wheel.

the Class of 1956 Class Gift to include:

(2) A picture of the
first recipient.
