Alumni Plans Miss Middleton And Queens Scholarship Ball
Free Youth Football Combine Coming To Tampa
The George S. Middleton High School Alumni Associ- ation is planning a “Miss Middleton and Queens Scholarship Ball” for April, 2019. The date, time and location will be an- nounced soon. For more in- formation e-mail Corresponding Secretary Yvonne Douglas at yvonnedouglas1968@yahoo .com.
“We want to honor the ladies we chose as Miss Mid- dleton, Homecoming Queens and their courts during our long history (1934-2018) at both cam- puses of our school,” said Alumni Association Presi- dent Luvator Nelson. “And we also want to recog- nize Miss Freshman, Miss Sophomore and Miss Junior for those years. Please e- mail Yvonne Douglas as soon as possible if you were in either the Miss Middleton or Homecoming Queen Courts.”
This will be the alumni association’s major fund raiser for 2019 and the group will donate proceeds from the scholarship ball to the school to assist Middle- ton students. The ball also will unite graduates from both campuses: the original campus opened in 1934, closed as a high school in 1971 and the new campus
