Dear Raider Alum:
It was great to see so many Alumni at our annual Smarty Party held this past Saturday. We had over 40 alumni representing over 20 classes that attended. We were so glad to have you back in person. It was a great evening!
|
|
Our expansion project is coming right along. Again thank you to our donors who made this campaign possible. Here are a few pictures of this project which will be administrative offices and the Sister Rita Guidance Center. |
|
Our alumni office has been working to continue updating our databases especially for the classes who will have reunions this fall. It has been wonderful to see the alumni who have stepped up to help organize their reunions. Please check out your alumni group on our Facebook page or website. |
|
Our next alumni meeting is June 6th at 6:00 pm in our library. Mark your calendar! Thank you for your prayers and support of your Catholic Alma Mater!
God Bless,
Jo Hoy

Message from the President of the Alumni Association |

Hello,
As I wrote this newsletter introduction, I realized that 2022 marks my 15th year in volunteering with the CRHS alumni association! It is easy to remember when I started because it coincided with planning our 10 year class reunion. We are pulling together to begin planning our 25th now! I have truly enjoyed my time on the alumni board, and I encourage you to consider giving your time and talent by joining the board as well. Maybe you will even want to lend your voice to these newsletters! We have an annual meeting each summer to plan for the upcoming year. In the next few months, please consider joining the board!
In the meantime, there are some exciting events coming up including Raider Rev Up on May 7th. Besides attending events and donating to the school directly, you can also support Cardinal Ritter when shopping at Kroger, Amazon, and Office Max along with getting rewards from Box Tops and Coke. Visit the school’s website to find out more.
As alumni we are called to show support of each other and to celebrate one another. Please send your celebrations, large or small, to be shared in the next newsletter. This newsletter is meant to inform fellow alumni of the great things you are doing but remember we need your help to do so! What you have been up to? Fill us in on your adventures and achievements. You can submit news directly at https://www.cardinalritter.org/alumni-newsletter/. I would love hearing from you too! Please reach out if you have story ideas for the newsletter or if you just want to say hi.

Things are moving right along with the new addition at Cardinal Ritter. Windows are going in and the walls are going up in the office and guidance areas. Everything is right on schedule for our planned completion date.

Time Capsule
During the demolition for the new addition to Cardinal Ritter High School the crew from Brandt Construction uncovered a time capsule inside the date stone on the front of the school. No one had any idea that it was there or what it might contain. Upon opening it we found coins dated 1964, copies of the Criterion, Indianapolis Star, Indianapolis Times, a report card, a class schedule and other artifacts. The Executive & Senior Class officers decided we should add some things from Cardinal Ritter 2022 before resealing the time capsule and placing it back in the date stone. Items included coins dated 2022, a copy of the Annual Report, a note from Mrs. Hoy, a mask, hand sanitizer and more. We can only imagine when the capsule will be opened again and who will find the treasures inside.
