Globe High School Alumni Association (GHSAA)
The next GHSAA Board of Directors meeting is scheduled for April 17, 2010 in Apache Junction.
The dates have been set for the 4th Annual All-Alumni GHS picnic: April 10, 2010
A GHSAA has been formed. By virtue of attendance at GHS, any person who attended GHS is a member. A charter for the GHSAA was reviewed in a general assembly of GHSAA on Saturday, January 10, 2009 (Tiger Day.) This meeting was held in the Globe High School auditorium at 10:30 a.m. The proposed charter and bylaws were approved at the meeting, and a board of directors was elected.
Four resolutions were passed:
1. The charter of the GHSAA as presented and amended was approved.
2. GHSAA expressed support and encouragement to Nick Rayes in his work to honor alumni who served in the U.S. Armed Forces.
3. This website was designated as the official website for the GHSAA.
4. The GHSAA supports the Globe High School Alumni Scholarship Committee and encourages members to contribute to the program.
The following board members were elected (in order by class):
Betty Mackey (49)
Marian Reams (54)
Jo Foti (55)
Ben Marin (56)
Jim Phillips (56)
Darlene Medina (61)
Claudia Armer (63)
Karl Foerster (68)
Marcella Olvera-Justis (90)
The goals of the GHSAA are to:
- Assemble and maintain a list of alumni along with current addresses (regular mail and e-mail) so as to assist classes in reunion efforts and provide information to GHS alumni. Addresses will be used by the GHSAA board of directors to contact you and will not be divulged to third parties.
- Plan and prepare for celebratory or commemorative events (like the centennial of the Globe High School building in 2014).
- Assist in the maintenance and revitalization of Globe High School Spirit and in the prosperity (academic and social) of those currently involved with the high school.
The GHSAA has been incorporated as a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization in Arizona. If you wish to be recognized as a contributing member, a modest contribution of $5 or $10 would be greatly appreciated. You can send your contributions to our Acting Treasurer, Marian (Wenker) Reams (Class of '54) at 1152 E. Blazer, Globe, Arizona, 85501. Make checks payable to the GHS Alumni Association.
