Respectfully Submitted, Lisa Hilton Farmer, Recording Secretary Message from Brian Hartwell, Pulaski School Superintendent Hello Pulaski Alumni, Welcome home! It is an honor and privilege to serve The Academy and greater Pulaski community as Superintendent of Schools. It has been said that “It’s people, not programs…” that make the difference in fostering a culture of excellence. That is certainly true in Pulaski. Last June I had the opportunity to attend my first Alumni Banquet in Pulaski. I was amazed at the level of participation from class to class. As I observed I couldn’t help but take note of our seniors that were taking in the moment. You were showing them the way, and they were paying close attention. That is the formula that a very special tradition and culture are built on. Lastly, I want to thank each of you that so generously donate your time and money in order to recognize members of the graduating class. The scholarships that the Alumni Association provide are highly coveted among each member of the senior class. While each award carries a monetary value that recipients truly appreciate and value, they also represent a time honored practice and recognition from you, the Alumni, that they will carry with them throughout their days. So, no matter where life brings them, the ups and downs, the successes and failures; they, like you, will always be welcome home and will always be Blue Devils. Thank you for all you do to support the Alumni Association and your school. All the best, Brian Greater Pulaski Community Fund- The Greater Pulaski Community Endowment Fund is a union of gifts contributed by the people of the Pulaski community that makes grants to support programs and projects of importance to the area.

Many Alumni attended In 2015 news spread across social media and by word of mouth that the Ringgold volunteer fire department had decided to not hold the annual field days which have been a summertime tradition for over half a century. The Fire department, which is staffed by volunteers had not realized enough profit with increased costs over the years and with challenges to increase volunteers found the popular event difficult to staff for little return. In place of this treasured annual event, the Pulaski Festivals Committee which operates Winterfest and Salmon Fest each year organized the 1st Pulaski Old Home Days event for August 5-7, 2015. The event began with the traditional Friday night farmers market and music. On Saturday the 6th additional tents, children’s games and a variety of food was offered. A waterslide and bounce house kept the kids occupied throughout the pleasant day. In the evening the class of 1985 held a reunion at the former Earl’s Bar across the street, (some of the ’85 ladies are pictured on the right out on Earls’ deck) while the class of 1995 enjoyed a night at the Kallet Theater next door. Meanwhile the park was filled with other spectators who enjoyed a spectacular performance of local singing greats led by Steve Woolson. It truly was a memorable evening listening to the classic songs of yesteryear sung by so many talented performers of the Eastern Lake Ontario region! This event is still evolving, and the committee has a Facebook page at Pulaski New York Old Home Days, where information on the 2016 event will be posted. Dates are set for August 5-7, 2016 in Pulaski’s south Park. th Last year we ran 4 Annual Alumni Bus Trip another successful bus tour around town and up to Salmon River Falls by way of Altmar, with stops at Half-Shire Historical (Old Richland School) for a light lunch and Pulaski Historical Society for dessert!---it was a huge success and a lot of fun! We are planning again to offer this free bus trip—with three buses-- around the village of Pulaski and Town of Richland on Saturday June 25, 2016. This year three buses will depart Lura Sharp School by “the old bus garage” at 11 am. The same plan is set out, with some updates to the tour. Shawn Doyle, Margaret Weigel and Ted Williams will be your guides! While at Half-Shire a light lunch will again be offered. Even if you live here you might be surprised by the things you “don’t see” everyday!
