Former FHS grads give back

FALLBROOK – The 2017 Fallbrook High Alumni Association Scholarship recipients Catlyn Parsons and Andrew Holemo passed out alumni picnic fliers among fans in the stands, while sharing stories of their continued education after graduating and inviting all alumni to Homecoming. Each year, the Fallbrook Alumni Association awards scholarships to students like Parsons and Holemo.

Both "Today's Warriors" and "Forever Warriors" will celebrate Homecoming, Oct. 19, and since 2018 is the 125th birthday for Fallbrook High School, members of the student body and staff will celebrate with a brief ceremony before the varsity game.

Cake will be served, and all alumni present will be invited to join the party. In addition to the birthday celebration at the homecoming game, several classes will celebrate reunions and events beginning with the Oct. 19 Homecoming Game, a tour of the high school Saturday, Oct. 20, from 10 a.m. to noon. Alumni can address tour questions to Bob Johnston at (760) 723-3037 or [email protected]. The Homecoming season will see many class reunion parties and end with the Alumni Picnic in the Park Sunday, Oct. 21, from 11a.m. to 3 p.m.

Reservations for the picnic should be sent to Fallbrook Alumni Association, P.O. Box 596, Fallbrook, CA 92088. Students of FHS's Agriculture Department will serve a tri tip lunch at $15 per person. Reservations must be received by Oct. 15.

Those who do not wish to order lunch are asked to reserve their "spot" at the picnic by Oct. 15 and indicate "no-lunch." The association will provide cake, water, music and an opportunity drawing.
