Galion City School Hall of Fame Seeks Nominations
Written by Brian Treisch   
Friday, 19 March 2010
The Synergy Committee, organizers of the Connections Weekend for the Galion City Schools, is requesting nominations for the Galion City Schools Hall of Fame.  The Galion Alumni Association, a member of the Synergy Committee, is coordinating this nomination process. 

We are looking for Galion graduates or faculty members who have made significant contributions to their communities or to their respective field.  Many of our current students are not aware of the success many Galion graduates have had after they complete their education here in Galion.  All of the organizations that make up the Synergy Committee agree that students need to be aware of the opportunities out there and the great accomplishments made by many of our graduates.

Nominating forms are available online HERE , the Galion City Schools Administrative office, the Galion Area Chamber of Commerce office, or at Uptowne Outfitters.  Nominations must be submitted to the Galion Alumni Association at any of these locations or mailed to P.O. Box 22, Galion, OH   44833 no later than July 1, 2010.
