Centertown group seeks alumni

The Centertown Alumni Association voted to have all of the past graduating classes whose pictures were hanging on the walls of the old school reframed and matted to be hung in the new school. Ms. Janie Moore, principal of Centertown School, very graciously agreed to let the Alumni Association move the pictures from the old school to the new school.

The pictures have been taken down and reframed and matted so that each photograph is the same size and the same frame color. There were sixteen pictures that have matted and framed by Donald Vinson, owner of the Frame Peddler and a graduate of Centertown. He has done a great job at a tremendous savings to the Alumni Association.

There were also 24 plaques of early graduating classes that needed work. New plaques were ordered of a uniform size and color to match the new frames and Alumni Association president Billy Cunningham is moving all of the material from the old plaques to the new plaques.

The Centertown Alumni Association raised $655 at its banquet last year for this project, but is still short $250. So the Alumni Association needs your help. If you have not made a donation and would like to do so, please send your donation to Billy Cunningham, 5045 Shelbyville Road, McMinnville, TN 37110.

The Centertown Alumni Association appreciates the community’s support and encourages everyone to come by and see the restored pictures and plaques when the new school opens.
