Reunion Raffle

 

Hello, fellow Upper Darby Class of 70’ Classmates!  

For the life of me, I cannot believe that 50+ years have passed since we walked the halls of Upper Darby Senior High School, worked tirelessly preparing for our first and only May Day Ceremony, convinced the school to abolish the dress code and I am certain there are so many other memories that each of us carries personally!

For each Reunion, we try our best to raise additional funds to provide a Class of 70’ Scholarship to two UDHS seniors graduating and continuing their education.  We work closely with the Scholarship Committee at Upper Darby with the selection of the students they feel should be recipients of this scholarship.  The value of the scholarship is reliant upon the sale of the Prize Raffles and the 50/50 Raffles. 

Please participate generously in this fundraising effort!
