Ground breaking scheduled for Spring of 2008.

Donations are still being accepted for the Memorial Shelter Project.  A giant replica ceremonial check for $15,000 was presented during the program on Reunion Day, but we have already exceeded that amount by nearly $2000 in dedicated donations, and hope to raise still more.  Remember that you can donate “in memory of” an individual and have that designated individual memorialized on the website…  although in keeping with our agreed practice, the donor will not be named. If you would still like to make a donation, please send your tax deductible donation to:

The Dublin High School Memorial Committee voted to assist Pulaski County in funding a new picnic shelter at Randolph Park. The shelter will be named “Dublin High School Alumni Shelter.” It will accommodate approximately 75 people. The shelter will display two memorial plaques: one for our deceased classmates and the other to honor our teachers and school staff. It will be conveniently located next to the restrooms and playground.

Donations are requested, to the extent of your ability and desire to make them, and they will be gratefully accepted as a part of the registration process, or afterward, with a separate and entirely optional donation line as part of registration.  Funds donated in this way will be earmarked for the project.
  
We are not consciously allocating any segment of the event ticket costs for this project—although we will re-assess our ability to supplement the amounts donated by individuals with residual funds that may remain from the proceeds of this All-Class Reunion after it is held.

Your generous support of our All-Class Project will be very much appreciated, not only by your Reunion Committee but also by the citizens of Pulaski County.  Monetary contributions from Dublin High School alumni and Lowe’s Home Improvement Store’s contribution of a 50% discount on building materials should cover a great deal of the cost.

The project will show community support and provide visibility for Dublin High School alumni. Additionally, as a result of participation in the project, Dublin High School graduates will be privileged to a two week jump on the normal reservation scheduling period to reserve any of the Randolph Park shelters for a Dublin High School reunion. Randolph Park normally accepts reservations beginning October 1st for the following spring and summer. However, Dublin High School Reunions may be scheduled during the last two weeks of September for the following spring and summer.

The Memorial Committee hopes that you will see this as a worthy project and that all who can will contribute toward the cost of the Dublin High School Alumni Shelter.
