Potter Alumni

Lou Holtz —  In 2022 before his final public appearance at the Lou Holtz-Upper Valley Hall of Fame, the College Football Hall of Fame coach Lou Holtz, who died Wednesday at the age of 89, walked gingerly into the museum that bared his name and had a seat at the back of the building to prepare to receive fans, well-wishers and the final class of his Hall of Fame.

Cutoff for orders is Wednesday, March 18th.

This is the largest fundraiser of the year with proceeds providing scholarships and operating funds. All bidding and
payment processing are through the auction website.

Custom items from local potteries are an auction tradition. Fiesta Tableware Company, Newell, WV, manufactured and donated Fiesta and Hall China items that will be popular with many collectors.

Plans are taking place for the 2026 Auction, with dates and details available soon.

 

The heating and A/C unit is approximately 30 years old and needs repaired/replaced. The current system is still running on the old freon and because of issues with the system we need to move to a new more efficient system.

​

Based on the following:

• Cost: R-22 is increasingly scarce, making repairs very expensive, while new systems (R-410A or R-454B) are more efficient.

• Safety/Compatibility: Old systems cannot use new refrigerants without major, often impractical, modifications to the compressor, coils, and tubing.

• Performance: Modern systems (post-2010) use 30%–50% less energy.

​

The total needed is $8000.  Any amount you can donate toward this project will be greatly appreciated. Please mail checks directly to the ELHSAA at the address below:
