Scott Stream, younger brother of our KHS65 classmate Donald Stream, has stepped down from the Kirkwood School Board after 9 years of service. Scott has been very active in local politics in addition to his duties on the School Board as well as other KHS related volunteer jobs.
Important to many of us alumni is the Lyons Stadium improvement project, underway now. We have been promised that the $3.2 million renovation will be finished by the first home kick-off this fall. Improvements will include new bleachers, concession areas, restrooms and a press box. It will be brought into compliance with the American Disabilities Act. Our severe winter hindered the beginning of demolition, but that lost time has been made up. GO PIONEERS!!!

Let's make plans to christen the newly improved Lyons Stadium come fall!!!!
MORE NEWS ABOUT THE UPCOMING KHS SWIMMING POOL CHECK THIS OUT!
This is an email I received from our alumni guru Ginger, but by then I'd already posted this information here and on Facebook. I hope some of you may be interested in attending the meeting! "I hope word has reached you about the generosity of the Walker Foundation in establishing a $10 million grant to build a competitive pool on the campus of Kirkwood High School. There was an awesome student assembly on Wednesday, April 23. Nance (Walker) Frost and Brian Humes, trustees of the Walker Foundation, made the announcement to the students. Nance Frost also declared a "call to action" to students, parents and community members to join the Walkers in the deep end of the pool and raise funds to endow The Walker Natatorium for generations of Pioneers! I hope you will join us in our first meeting on Tuesday, April 29 at 4 p.m. in the administrative services center, 11289 Manchester Road, of this grassroots effort to meet this call to action!
The
objectives for the first meeting are to find out how everyone wants to
be involved in this effort, discuss the parameters of our fundraising
efforts as stipulated by the grant from the Walker Foundation and
discuss our marketing strategy and funding needs. Please invite anyone
you believe would be interested. I hope to see you on Tuesday!"
