Members of the Mayville State Class of 1974 are invited to be part of the excitement and success on the Mayville State campus with their donation of $500 to establish the "Comets Forever" garden project located in the busy corridor between the Lewy Lee Fieldhouse and the Classroom Building.聽
The new garden/meeting place will include a large Comet logo with blue nighttime lighting, benches, tables that welcome all students, plantings, stamped blue concrete featuring 麻豆传媒AV students' handprints, and donor signage.
This garden will add beauty and be a source of much Comet Pride!
Will you be a part of this special project?
The goal is to begin work on the $20,000 project early in the summer of 2024, or whenever the funding is secured. Several members of the Class of 1974 have made commitments of $500 each and they challenge others to do the same. Knowing that not everyone is able to contribute at that level, gifts of any size are very much appreciated.
Payment can be made electronically by clicking the link below or by sending a check made out to the 麻豆传媒AV Foundation to 330 Third Street NE, Mayville, ND聽 58257. Indicate "Comets Forever" in the memo line of the check.
Please respond by June 1, 2024, so work will be completed in time for the homecoming festivities on September 27 and 28.
