A Message from Ken Beck ‘74
Following the success of the June Reunions, we are eager to let you know about other upcoming events. The first is the Picnic on September 12th at Greene Township Park, right across from the pond entrance of the school. Hector Robinson ’73 is our contact person and can answer any questions you may have. Hector’s contact information is inside the newsletter. Next is the 12th Annual Golf Tournament on October 3rd. It will be held again at Eagles Crossing Golf Club in Carlisle. If you’re a golfer and would like to enter a foursome, contact Jim Lowe ’70 and/or if you’d like to make a donation to the golf tournament, do so using the reservations/donations form on page 11. We also have a Bingo fundraiser scheduled on October 24th. Proceeds from the Bingo event support the Franklin County Special Olympics and the SSVC Alumni Association. Lastly for 2015, on November 14th is our “Homecoming” Dinner/Dance at the Chambersburg American Legion. Hope to see you at one or more of these events!
