"JULY MONTHLY NEWSLETTER"

 

*************************************************

Dear North High Alumni,
 
When our alumni website launched back in 2006, it was supported by a dedicated team of 22 volunteers. Thanks to their efforts, we created a space where classmates could reconnect, share memories, and celebrate our North High legacy.
 
Today, that volunteer team has dwindled to just five people—myself included.
 
We’re reaching out because we need your help. This is not a paid position, but it is an opportunity to:
 
Give back to the North High community
 
Help preserve and share alumni memories
 
Keep our digital space active and meaningful
 
If you can spare even a few hours a week—or just an hour a month—your contribution would go a long way. Tasks include updating pages, sharing news, and helping manage content.
 
If you've ever smiled reading an alumni update or found joy in reconnecting through the site—please consider becoming a volunteer.
 
We can’t do it without you.
 
To volunteer or ask questions, simply reply to this email. rolonhiway@gmail.com
Thank you for helping us keep the North High spirit alive!
 
Warm regards,
William R Gilcrist Jr
North High Alumni Site Creator
