Original Brick Pickup – December 20, 2014 – 9am-12pm!

December 18, 2014March 19, 2015Raiders Remember

If you’ve purchased a brick from the original SBRHS building, it is ready for pickup (see day/time below). As you probably have seen, the building has been demolished (mostly). The demo was a bit delayed, which is why it took a while for us to get back to you. Thank you for your patience!

We have been receiving a lot of requests to pick up the original bricks before Christmas and the holiday. We were able to set up a table for this weekend for pickup!

We will NOT be shipping any bricks (if you paid for a shipping fee by accident, we have noticed and will refund the shipping fee. Not to worry).

LAST CHANCE! Original bricks will also be sold this Saturday 12/20 during pickup! There will only be a handful left, as we are limiting sales only until the new year (firm deadline)!

Pickup Information:

When: This Saturday 12/20, 9am-12pm

Where: In front of Performing Arts Center @ SBRHS

We will be distributing as many bricks as possible this Saturday. If you absolutely cannot make this Saturday, we will be sending out another correspondence with info on how to pick up. Hope to see you Saturday!

Feel free to contact me (cell below, or email) anytime!

Thank you,

Holly McNamara

Spirit of Somerset!

September 19, 2014Raiders Remember

Raiders Remember is excited to be part of the Spirit of Somerset Family Fun Day!

The Spirit of Somerset events take place tonight, Friday September 19th (evening, 5:30pm-8pm), and tomorrow, Saturday September 20th (all day into the evening, 8am-10:15pm).

The exhibit features all kinds of artifacts from the history of Somerset High School & Somerset Berkley Regional High School. R.R. Members will be selling memorabilia from the old high school such as prints, note pads, note cards, t-shirts, old & new bricks.

All day Saturday from 11:30am-10:15pm (tomorrow), we will again be selling items to raise money for the scholarship fund that include memorabilia from the old high school such as prints, note pads, note cards, t-shirts, old & new bricks. Also Saturday, from 12pm – 4pm, the Raiders Remember memorabilia exhibit will be open at Somerset Historical Society’s James E. Bradbury Museum.
