And the Winner Is...

 

Five entries were received for our 2014 PG T-shirt contest.  During the last week of February 354 (out of 437) students voted, choosing Kelly Bumb's design (see below) as the winning entry. The winning design will be announced at the Senior Assembly (date still TBD) and at the end of the school year everyone in the senior class will be given a t-shirt with her fantastic design.

Note from Our Decorations Guru

 

Hello all! We are looking for 2-liter plastic soda bottles for a project we're working on....so save 'em if you've got 'em. They need to be clear plastic (not green).  Also, we're looking for large plastic jars (like from Costco). These usually house pretzels or cheese balls. The bigger the better. Don't forget we have a work party tomorrow from 9am to 1pm.  We'd love to see you there. Contact me, Kathy (297-2584), if you have questions or donations.

Thank you Accenture Match Volunteers

  

Our last minute call for help was answered... we filled all of our 44 concession stand shifts at the Accenture Match Play pro golf tournament! We enjoyed fabulous weather and took home $100 in tips in addition to our percent of the gross concession sales earned on the two days we worked. We are still waiting to hear from the concession company just how much in total we raised.

IRHS has an early-out Tuesday 3/11
This is a perfect opportunity to have lunch and a conversation with your busy high school student. If you go to Oro Valley Chili's and show them this flyer they will give back 15% of your bill to IRHS Project Grad. 

IRHS Golfers Won the OV Cup 

(but all our grads are the biggest winners!)

 

On February 7th the IRHS student team took home the OV Cup -- congrats Ruben Ruiz, Nate Sverdrup, Andrew Sverdrup and Kenyon Kautz! 

But thanks to all the funds raised, the biggest winners are all the 2014 graduates in Amphitheater who will celebrate safe & sober at Project Grad all-night parties this May. 

 

Thank you to everyone who participated, donated, and volunteered at the Oro Valley Cup.  Thanks to all of your help and support we were able to raise more than $33,000 for the 3 schools.  This is an increase of over 30% from last year.  This increase will help all three schools continue to make Project Graduation a night to remember for the class of 2014.  While the golf tournament may be finished for 2014 we are already hard at work for the tournament in 2015.  If you know of any company that might be willing to be a sponsor, please let us know and we'll be happy to reach out to them and share the different sponsorship opportunities.  Next year's tournament will be on Friday February 6, 2015 at the Hilton- El Conquistador Golf Course.  Please mark your calendars for next year's tournament - whether you are a participant or volunteer we'd love to see you there.Thank you to everyone who supported the OV Cup Golf Tournament.
