2022 FOUNDING FIVE CLASSES SCHOLARSHIP ANNOUNCEMENT |
|
|
Cool Text
Over the past five years starting in 2017 the Eastmont Founding Five Classes have awarded a total of $8,200 in scholarships to very deserving Eastmont High Seniors. A very big THANK YOU to all who have contributed to helping an Eastmont Senior with their post high school education. It has meant a lot to each and every one of them.
Again this year, as we did last year, we have a new procedure for submitting your contribution. Since some folks had asked if the Founding Five Scholarship donation could be tax deductible, I exchanged emails with the Eastmont Foundation Point of Contact who told me the donations would be tax deductible if the checks were made out to the Eastmont Foundation since it is a 501c3 charitable organization.
Based on that here's how were going you do the donations again this time so that anyone who wants to use it as a tax deduction can do so:
1. Everyone make their checks out to "The Eastmont Foundation" and then write "Founding Five Scholarship" in the Memo or For section on the check.
2. Then send your checks to me by December 31st and I'll put them all together and send them on to the Eastmont Foundation in early January. That way I can send a thank you to each of you who donated and send all the checks to the Eastmont Foundation POC in one package and make sure they all go to the Founding Five Scholarship.
We already have jump started a nice 2022 Scholarship Fund with two very generous contributions classmates gave me at our Class of 1960 60th Reunion and with another generous donation from a classmate who had to cancel their participation in the reunion due to health issues two weeks before the event. That classmate asked that their 60th Reunion sign up check be put into the 2022 Founding Five Scholarship Fund. Thank you very much to all of you for getting our 2022 Scholarship Fund Raising off to a great start!
Thanks in advance for your contribution of any amount to our 2022 Founding Five Classes Scholarship.

Today's Featured Biography
Mary Lou Collier Long
I married Ronald "Wayne" Long 9/15/1961 We were married 6 years before our 1st son, Robin was born. We moved to Tacoma raising our family in the same house for 29 1/2 years.
We had two other sons, David, & Andrew. I worked in the account office 19 hour days while also attending college for my Account Degree. My husband of almost 49 yrs in Sept. went to work at Boeing as an Inspector.
My oldest son, Robin died suddenly of Cancer. He was a beautiful man with great artistic abilities. He was very musical and loved his Gibson LesPaul Guitar. Wrote most of his music. He was funnier than any comic. People would not show up/or leave a party if he wasn't going to be there.
My other 3 sons, Dave & Andy were more physical in nature. They were in wrestling in the winter, and baseball in the summer, later including ROTC and the Army. Each of my 3 sons are beautiful, bright, handsom, good men, & I am so proud of each of them. I feel so grateful and lucky that I got to know them. Needless to say that I spoil them--all they half to do is ask, and Momma gets it, or take care of it for them. Mary Lou Long

Remembering When…we sat and talked,
Dreaming of days to come.
Walking the halls, cafeteria food,
And laughing until we were numb.
The fall football games, the roar of the crowd,
The beat of the Eastmont Wildcat Band,
The autumn air still takes me back to that time,
To where we’d meet up with friends as planned.
Remembering when we cruised Wenatchee Ave,
The Triple X, sneaking into the VueDale Drive-in.
Scratchy formal dresses, big hair, corsages,
Crew cuts, white bucks, homecoming with friends.
Those tender times were of gentler days,
That now seem to be of a different world.
The march of time has brought with it changes,
As new generations of lives have unfurled.
All of those memories are but a whisper now,
That will forever echo in my mind.
Now and then I find myself searching
For the faces of those friends who left us behind.
Most friends remain - but some have gone
And left for a final place of rest.
Gone from our sight yet with the memories of those,
We surely have been blessed.
Remembering When…we had not a care in the world,
And how time just seemed to stand still.
I think of you now with fond thoughts and precious memories,
And I know that I always will.
[Modified from poem by Michelle Young, WCHS c/o 1976]
