Alumni Banquet
As of now, the alumni board has plans to proceed with the annual banquet. The next meeting of the board will be held March 29, and the official decision will be announced by April 1st. Due to limited funds, fewer invitations will be mailed out this year if we do choose to hold the banquet. Please watch the new Facebook page for announcements: Kensington Alumni public page. Donations would be greatly appreciated to help ensure the banquet can take place as we have not been able to hold some of the usual fundraisers due to COVID. Please consider sending your contributions to: Staci Foreman, Clerk; USD #110 Thunder Ridge Schools; PO Box 188; Kensington, KS 66951.
