HAPPY LEAP YEAR
Another Alumni Hoops Victory 

Maumee Valley alumni turned up in full force to take on current students in the annual Holiday Hoops Game. Alumni won with a final score of 68-56. We had a great team of 12 talented players: Tyler Boehm '01, Danny Brandon '11, Tarquin Carroll '97, Craig Choka '05, Duncan Gromko '03, Morgan Fitzgibbons '02, Lincoln Kynard '90, Leo Martinez '00, Mike Martinez '05, Rob Neal '99, Kyle O'Connell '05, and Chris Sackmann '06, along with a bleacher full of alumni supporters.

 

Those who stayed for the Schmoozin' Reception reconnected with classmates and toured the new building facilities with Head of School, Gary Boehm. It was a wonderful afternoon for all who came. Click here to see who attended the event.

 

We can't wait to see everyone again at next year's Holiday Hoops & Schmoozin. Save the Date: December 29, 2012.

Go Retro, Submit A Design 

The Alumni Council is still accepting submissions for the Retro Design Contest. Think creatively about what you'd like to see on alumni promotional items.  It can be anything from a likeness of an old mascot, logo, or even a former faculty member or Head of School. The winning designer will receive gifts and accolades from the school, and have his/her design featured on alumni promo-gear. 

 

Submit your designs no later than February 23, 2012, to alumni@mvcds.org.

All Aboard the Maumee Valley Express

Maumee Valley's biennial auction makes an important and positive difference in our community and is one of the premier fundraising events in greater Toledo. 

 

This year's fundraising goal is $250,000. One hundred percent of the proceeds will directly support Maumee Valley's annual operations. 

 

Save the Date: The auction, All Aboard! The Maumee Valley Express, will be held at the Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Plaza at the Amtrak Station in Toledo on May 19, 2012.   

 

Who do ya' know? What do ya' have?

 

You can help make this event a great success. The Auction Planning Committee invites all alumni to donate a unique item and experience for auction. 

 

Do you have a special skill or talent? Consider donating part of your work or hobby. Maybe your hometown would make an exciting tourist destination. Do you have an abundance of frequent flyer miles? We'd love to create exciting travel packages including free air-fare for our auction bidders. Is your next-door neighbor a famous celebrity? We'd love to feature a meet-and-greet dinner with a celebrity at this year's auction event.  

  

If you have questions or would like more information on how to donate an item or experience, please email Jeniece Corwin.

We're Making Progress!

This fiscal year, our goal is to raise the level of alumni participation in the annual fund to 20% by June 30, 2012. 

 

Why give? Higher levels of alumni support will sustain Maumee Valley's competitive standing as a leader in independent education for the 21st century.  

 

As of January 1, 2012, 6.5% of alumni have made a gift. We still have a long way to go. We need your help. 

 

Raise the Weathervane! Any gift, no matter the size, helps the school reach its goal. 

 

Give Now!

 

Track the monthly progress of the Raise the Weathervane alumni participation goal on the website.
