Ceremony Commemorates FJ Reitz Groundbreaking

0

Saturday, August 12, at 10 am, FJ Reitz Big Blue Boosters will host a brief ceremony honoring 100 years since ground was broken to build Reitz High School.  Guests are asked to gather under the Link.

This is the first of several commemorative events honoring the 2018-19 centennial year for the westside high school.

Big Blue Boosters and alumni volunteers will host public gatherings, films, tours, and more throughout the time from now through May 2019.  In addition, the group is raising funds in a Century Campaign for a special gift to the school from alumni and friends.

More than $31,000 has been raised to-date.

The Boosters has long led efforts to raise funds and support for student extra-curricular activities since incorporating as a non-profit agency in 1980.  More than $258,000 has been donated by the Boosters in the last 10 years alone.  Beneficiaries include Instrumental Music, Theatre, 12 different girls’ and boys’ athletic teams, DECA, BPA, Cheer, Hilltoppers and Speech & Debate.
