The Orme Alumni Association is here to keep you as involved as you would like to be. If you'd like to get connected with us and many of your classmates quickly, join us on www.Facebook.com and search for 'Orme Arizona'. Ask to be our "friend" and you will be amazed at how easy it is to find those Orme roommates and teammates and their families! You can also call or email us directly at (928) 632-1625 or siverson@ormeschool.org.
We also invite you to support our current and future students, preserving the Tradition, Excellence, and Character of The Orme School. This can be accomplished by your financial donations, gifts-in-kind, recommending Orme to friends, neighbors, business partners or other family members, and by volunteering to help with the many varied events throughout the year. Without your support, we cannot continue to offer our unique programs every year. Help us help our current students!
Upcoming Events
Reunion 2010: June 4 - 6, 2010
We invite all alumni to join us this June for an amazing weekend at Orme! This year we'll be hosting a very special Half-Century Reunion for those classes 50 years or more out of Orme (1960 and earlier) and our 'Open Reunion' for all classes. Our Half-Century reunion goers will stay off-campus and enjoy different and unique events, including the Half-Century Club luncheon and a special dinner on Saturday evening in Phillips Library. We also welcome our Summer Camp Barbecue folks to join us on Saturday, June 5 for the Camp BBQ & Campfire.
All alumni are welcome to attend, but this year's Open Reunion classes include those class years ending in 0's and 5's, so if you are from the classes of 1965, 70, 75, 80, 85, 90, 95, 2000, and 2005, we hope you'll make plans today to join us this June. We'll be mailing and emailing all registration forms out in early March, so if you did not receive your invitation, please call Sue Iverson, Director of Alumni Relations, at (928) 632-1625 or email her at siverson@ormeschool.org to update your address and get your reservations in today. We'll see you crossing the Ash Creek bridge and in Barnyard this June!!
