RARE Mustang Collectible  


Pictured above is the dash of a very special new car -- so special that even "Ford brass" have to line up to try and get their hands on one. So special that Jim Click representatives estimated it was worth way more than the sticker price before it even hits their lot. 

Why is it special? Only1964 will be made, and you could win one of them if you purchase a raffle ticket from us. 

Contact Delano to buy 1 for $25 or 5 for $100. Project Grad IRHS will receive 100% of the ticket price of every ticket purchased from us -- and you get a real chance of driving away this November in a rare 2015 GT coupe modeled after the original Mustang sold in April 1964.

PROJECT GRAD tickets are on sale ALL year long! Seniors can avoid a long line on the night of the event by getting a ticket early. What a great gift for a birthday or the spring holidays! Our all-inclusive event 
provides entertainment, food, spa, and photos all night ... for just $65!!! 

Let's Help Some Loyal Friends of IRHS Project Grad


Oro Valley Police Officer Wendy Davis is an adviser for the Explorers, a fantastic group of kids who aspire to pursue law enforcement careers. Every year they help Project Grad by carting down from the loft the multitude of decorations and necessaries for our event. Then days later they help us put it back again. They are AMAZING!!!  

They are putting on a raffle fundraiser this year to help each kid get to their annual conference this summer. The drawing is in April and they are capping the sales at 1,000 tickets.Tickets are $10 a piece and the prizes sound great.

Please consider helping out this great group of kids. We'd be lost without them! Contact Wendy Davis at 271-8420, or let Kathy, our Decorations guru, know and she'll get you ticket(s). 

The glitter dust is kicking up at our Decoration Work Parties! Marsha, pictured here, left our last work party sparkling. Come tell her "nice glittery stars, Marsha" this Saturday morning --March 14th, 9am-1pm. It'll be another bedazzling good time in the loft (the stairs are by the locker rooms, behind the IRHS gym). Everyone is more than welcome. Much work needs to be done as our event date draws near. More Saturday work parties are scheduled. Check this calendar for future dates.

THANK YOU

A big thanks to everyone who supported the Oro Valley Cup Golf Tournament last month. The generous warmth of the Tucson community mixed with sunny weather to create a blazin' hot fundraiser. Winners of all sorts walked away smiling, from the golfer making the longest shot of the day to the 79 raffle prizes winners. Some notable silent auction "steals" -- four Disneyland Park Hopper tickets and two airline tickets anywhere Southwest flies. The IRHS student foursome took home the trophy, but all upcoming graduates in Amphi School District were the event's VIP's. Tens of thousands of dollars were raised (the final tally is still being calculated).



Below is our Decorations wish list. Please 
contact Kathy if you can you lend or give any of the following to help bring the Vegas, Baby! event venue alive
  • LP records......45s and 33s
  • concert T's (we will return)
  • electric guitars  (we will return and place high up out of reach)
  • led lights
  • old wedding dresses
  • artificial flowers
  • artificial vines
  • wedding veil netting (tulle)
  • concert posters
  • 4" foam
  • throw pillow forms
  • karaoke machine (we will return)

Wait, Wait ... Look For It in Two Weeks


#1 Look-For-It

The winning design for our T-shirt contest will be reveled the Wednesday and Thursday after Spring Break. Where? Right outside the cafeteria.
