The Restoration Project was launched on
November 17, 2001. The committee's primary
responsibility is to manage the process of the
restoration of the school building; to solicit
funding, material and equipment; and to
challenge the membership of the association
to get involved. At this point, the
committee's biggest challenge is ensuring that
it has the material, equipment, funding, and
the professional expertise of alumni for the
full implementation of the project.
The committee has obtained donations from
several individuals and organizations in cash
and kind; which is just a fraction of the total
cost of the project. We need your help in
getting this project started. Please join Team
100.
