The Thorp Alumni Association leaders are gearing up and preparing

Registration begins at 1:00 p.m. at the Hall. Come early and beat the rush!
After alumni register, they are welcome to view the memorabilia, attend various

Between 1:00 p.m.

of themselves, relative and friends. Also available are some old THS annuals for
the low price of $5 each plus $6 for shipping if necessary. Contact the TAA by
email or phone if you have questions.

reunion of the Thorp alumni Association, Inc., and thanks to the donations of
