CPTC Scholarship Endowment Fund Update 

We are just a little over $3,000 away from establishing this fund. The Class of '65 has raised $3050! In first place in the class competition is the $4,958 raised by the Class of '66. In third place is the Class of '62 with $582. Grand total: $8945! When you sit down to make your end-of-year charitable donations, please include this fund AND be sure to include Class of 1965 with your information. Go T-Birds!

An enduring trade school scholarship fund for MT grads currently resides at Clover Park Technical College. Plans include adding a fund at Bates Technical College and ultimately a fund manager that will allow scholarships to be used at any trade school. Credit goes to the Class of '66 for doing the heavy lifting. We will continue to have a donation jar at our annual August gatherings at Meadow Park.

Donations can be made online, by cash or check, or via planned giving. Donations will be confidential, known only to the CPTC Foundation, who will provide tax receipts. Online: www.cptc.edu/MtTahomaGives

Cash/Check: CPTC Foundation, 4500 Steilacoom Blvd. SW, Lakewood, WA 98499 (please write Mt. Tahoma in the memo line, including your class).

It was such a wonderful event, we decided to bring the MT 65 ladies together to catch up and stroll down memory lane at least three times a year - Spring, Fall and Winter - saving summer for our annual August mini reunion at Meadow Park. We have had two 70th birthday parties, our first ladies luncheon, a picnic gathering hosted by Pat and Patti (Corcoran) Conner and our first mini runion at Medowpark since our 50th Class Reunion in 2015. If you want to add an event to our "stay in touch" calendar, let Penny Drost know (drostpe@msn.com) for our web site and Julie Johnson (mamajules47@gmail.com) for our Facebook page.
