Looking for Memories of the Thanksgiving Game
We are looking to start a collection of stories about the Turkey Bowl.  The 2010 game is being played at Coffey Field.  As a Prep public address announcer once said, "If football is you cup of tea, come to Coffey Field!"
 
We have the scores of the games but there are other traditions that we would like to hear about - the stories of decorating Hughes Hall, the rallies on Edwards Parade or on the Prep field.  We'd also like to hear stories of the family traditions that the Thanksgiving game is part of.  All stories are welcome.  Please e-mail them to alumnioffice@fordhamprep.org or you can "snail" mail them to:
Alumni Office
Fordham Prep
East Fordham Road
Bronx, NY 10458-517
 
The stories will be collected and some will be published in a future issue of Ramview or on the Prep's website - www.fordhamprep.org.

Fordham Prep Hockey News

The Fordham Prep Hockey Program will initiate a new tradition to strengthen the bonds between the current teams and alumni of the Program. On Friday 26 November, the annual Varsity Homecoming game (which has become quite an exciting event) will be combined with the annual Alumni Game and Hockey Hall of Fame presentation (formerly held in June). The festivities will begin at 5:15pm. Alumni, parents, friends - get ready to be part of a great new tradition!

More exciting news about the Fordham Prep Hockey Program – Both the JV and Varsity teams have been given the opportunity to play an afternoon doubleheader vs. St. Anthony’s at Nassau Coliseum. The date has been set for Saturday 15 January, with the JV facing off at 12:45 and the Varsity puck-drop at 3pm, followed by the Islanders- Sabres game that evening.

More information about both of these events will be posted on www.fordhamprephockey.com.

Alumni Hall - We're Almost There!
A few years ago, we started to work on a project to recreate the graduation class pictures that were found on the walls of Hughes Hall.  As their Senior Internship, John O'Reilly `07 and Sean Page `07, scanned the graduate pictures from all of the Prep yearbooks to create the digital files that are used to create the class posters.  Thanks to the generosity of Prep alumni, we are proud to report that the class posters for the classes of 1929, 1932, 1933, 1936, 1937, 1941, 1944 - 2010 will be in Alumni Hall by the November 4, 2010 Alumni Dinner. 

We are hoping to find donors who might want to contribute to have the class posters of following classes take their place in Alumni Hall: 1930, 1931, 1934, 1935, 1938, 1939, 1940, 1942, 1943

If you would like to sponsor a class poster for one of the classes that does not have a class poster, please contact the Alumni Office, by e-mail at alumnioffice@fordhamprep.org or by telephone at 718-367-7500 ext. 208. The cost to produce, frame and hang class posters is $400 per poster.

Annual Alumni Memorial Mass & Dinner and Alumni Hall Dedication
Date: November 04, 2010 6:00 PM to 10:00 PM

A question that is frequently asked when we meet with alumni, both locally and nationally, is “Whatever happened to the Alumni Dinner that was always held in the Spring?”

We are happy to report that the Alumni Dinner is now an annual event held yearly on the first Thursday of November. The 2010 Alumni Memorial Mass and Dinner is scheduled for Thursday, November 4, 2010. Details will be mailed in September.

THE ALUMNI DINNER LIVES! And you are invited to attend. Bring your Prep friends and classmates.

This year's event is significant also because Alumni Hall will be dedicated.  Alumni Hall is where the pictures of graduating classes now adorn the walls.


NOT TOTAL (but a big help) Tuition Raffle
Date: September 01, 2010 7:30 PM to January 22, 2011 11:30 PM

NEW NAME BUT SAME GREAT PRIZE! 

The grand prize of $12,000 will be applied toward your tuition payment for the 2011-12 school year or given as a lump sum cash payment.  We will sell only 411 tickets (in honor of our 2011 graduates), so the odds for each ticket-holder are excellent.  Family and friends of the Prep can purchase tickets as well and receive the cash prize in lieu of the tuition payment.  Tickets will be on sale from now until the winner is chosen on January 22, 2011 at our Mothers’ Club Winter event.  Proceeds help support the school.  

The cost per ticket is $100.00 and is tax deductible.
