We truly appreciate your help making this event come together.

To make our Alumni Banquet a success we could use your help!

Currently in need of:

🎯 someone to help with mailing out save the dates and invites

🎯any local alumni with bulk mailing abilities?

🎯someone from each of the honor classes to help out a bit even from afar

🎯Hope to see you all July 3, we should be ready to socialize and have a great time by then 😉

“Many hands make light work.”

Hey Alumni!!

Tag below the members of the following classes! (Don’t worry, we know who you are, but this will be more fun 😉)

And gooooo.... 🥳

Well, it is time for another Alumni Banquet! Make plans to attend the upcoming Friday, July 3rd Banquet. More details will be coming soon!

In an attempt to enhance and bring more people together we have decided to host the Alumni Banquet the same weekend as our already fantastic Hometown 4th of July. By joining these two celebrations together we hope we are helping with the hassle of an additional trip for some of our friends, an additional day to celebrate since the 4th is on a Saturday, adding another fun factor into our already fun festivities that will be planned.

If you are interested in helping or becoming a committee member, please send us a message here or reach out to one of us, posted below. Don’t feel like you have to be local to be a part of the meeting. We can use help in all areas especially in social media, obtaining addresses (snail mail and email), mailing, entering addresses into a computer program, decorating, and so much more.

Yes, we know Alumni Banquets are a thing of the past for the younger generations. However, we strongly feel that we have a rich and strong history and we want to keep it going for many years to come. It has been fun to watch all generations come together and mingle at previous Banquets!

Hope to see you there!

It's next weekend but reservations need to be in by May 20th. If you want, you can let us know you're coming and pay at the door. 😉

Hey CHS alumni. We have a current student in a contest to win $2000 for the school. This is Matt Ehlers's son. If you all could vote for him daily through the 20th, it would give him a great boost! And share to your friends if you can. Thanks!

There are two questions we keep getting from people about the Alumni banquet.

1. Why is the price so high for a pulled pork sandwich dinner?
Your tickets to the banquet pay for so much more than your meal. It pays for the 1000+ mailed invitations that are sent to people who don't have email. It pays for decorations, honor class gifts, caterer, dj for the dance and so many other little things that we can't even begin to mention it all. The Alumni funds are very low and we don't have alot of extra to pull from for these things.

2. Why did the banquet move to the 4th of July weekend and will it stay on that weekend?
Honestly, one of the main reasons we moved to this weekend was to try something different as we have declining numbers on Memorial Day weekend and many tell us that they aren't around that weekend to attend. Also, the Molly's Miracle Makers event this year is on the Saturday of Memorial Day due to scheduling conflicts for them. They didn't demand that we move, but we feel like it's an opportunity to support childhood cancer research by not taking attendees away from them. As for the banquet staying on this weekend, we will re-evaluate next time and see if it was a good change or not.

The alumni committee, though small in numbers, devote many hours of volunteer time to preparing for the banquet, making decisions, keeping our mailing list up to date since so many people change addresses frequently, decorating and so much more. In addition, many of the committee members are donating financially for some of the needs because we know there isn't enough money for it all.

I guess my main point is that we are doing the best we can to provide an opportunity to come together and share memories and reconnect with classmates. If you don't like decisions that are being made or have an interest in making changes in the future, we would welcome your input on the committee as a member. Even if you don't live close to Chambers, you can still participate.

Let's make Chambers High School proud to call us alumni!

(And if you know of a rich benefactor that wants to fund the alumni committee/banquet, we're all ears!)

Do any of my Chambers-connected friends have any photos from Chambers, the community, events, activities for school or clubs, churches, etc, that would be either from recent past or further back? I'm working on a slideshow and would love anything that you could either email to me or if you're local, I could pick up from you by Wednesday evening to scan myself. I know it's short notice, but anyone who has anything, please PM me and we can make connections. Thanks!

Thanks for helping out!

Status Update

By Maureen Metschke

Birthday card shower: A week from today- the 23 of July- a very GRAND lady will slide gracefully into another year. Please take the time to send Genevieve a card. (I think she will be 95 years young- but I could be off a year.) She still lives out on the home place and takes very good care of herself. She 'knows' her limits and is respectful of them. My 'favorite' is that she doesn't walk down the lane to get her mail if the wind is blowing, because it blows her over! :-) Just love this lady who 'molded minds' for YEARS and YEARS. My children benefited from her expertise as did many others. She got a lot of cards last year - and she was so thrilled to be remembered. Let's do this! Go ahead - make her day! :-)
Here is her address:

Genevieve Klabenes
49351 853 Road
Ewing, NE 68735

Hi everyone! We have some inquiries about the possibility of a Class of 1969 reunion. Is there anyone here that knows any plans? Or is there anyone who would like to make plans? Post your thoughts here and maybe some connections can be made.

Remember, this is an off year for alumni banquet, so we'll see you next year! :)
