Fellow Indians:

Again, we have so much going on and so little time....but it's all GOOD! So glad to have alumni that know the importance of getting this group "off the ground"! BUT WE DO NEED YOU!!! The success of the group is dependent on the participation of YOU....whether it's attending our events ,helping to spread the word to get new members or printing and posting our flyers in the community or at work! It all helps!

IRHS ALUMNI LICENSE PLATES!!! You only have 12 days to get your sealed bid to Mitch Rogers (sealed bids for #11-9999 due by 4/6)! Be one of the first to "sport" your new IR Alumni tag! Tag #1-10 will be "live auctioned" at our "Beef & Brew Event" on 4/13! This should be FUN...and hopefully a nice "moneymaker" for the IRHSAA! How much are YOU willing to pay for that special number??? Remember, you can place the tag on the back of your vehicle (instead of your DMV tag) or on the front of your vehicle ALONG with your current tag! NO ADDTIONAL ANNUAL FEES!!! Contact us with any questions....but get those bids in NOW! (Bidding forms on our website!)

1st ANNUAL "BEEF & BREW"!!! (4/13) We are in need of additional "Sponsors" (get your business advertised) to help with expenses of the event and AUCTION ITEMS! Personal OR business donations of ANY value welcomed! If you are NOT able to attend, maybe send in an auction item! We'd LOVE a donation from each class....how about putting a basket together from a few classmates with a "creative theme"? Please contact Nancy Hickman ('75) at whitesneck@gmail.com with your donations! Tickets are on sale NOW....and are LIMITED! Remember pre-sale tickets ($30) will be sold until 4/8 ($35 after that or at the door IF AVAILABLE)! We need a "head count" for food planning!

OFFICER NOMINATIONS!!! Officer nominations need to be submitted prior to our 4/8 meeting. Voting will take place at the May meeting! Please consider "stepping up" and taking a position....what can YOU give the IRHSAA???

IRHS HALL OF FAME!!! Have you submitted a nomination for a deserving IRHS Hall of Fame inductee? There are MANY out there....but we need YOU to take the time to submit their application.....must be received by 4/19! (Applications on our website!)

SIGN UP!!! If you are receiving THIS email, you are currently "signed up"! We are finding quite a few interested alumni that are NOT on our official list...some were "lost" during the changeover from our original online registration to our current one and some think that because they "liked" us on Facebook and see our info they have signed up (which they may NOT have)....so if you talk with anyone and they are unsure, PLEASE ASK THEM TO SIGN UP AGAIN! We can remove duplicates if needed....but really need everyone to sign up to give us your contact information. This will be so important in the future. Sign up at our website:

www.IRHSAlumni.com

More information and flyers are posted on the website as well! Feel free to contact us with any questions through this email!

Again, please support our events/projects! We depend on YOU.....so let's PACK FRANKFORD FIRE HALL on 4/13! Hope to see YOU there!

Thanks,

Ruth Ann Marvel

IRHSAA, President
