After Holiday Pasta Party success, MHSAA eyes 2020 Hall of Fame event he Malden High School Alumni Association (MHSAA), celebrating the success of its recent holiday pasta party, is looking forward to more exciting events to raise funds to benefit MHS students, particularly those in need, such as the induction of a new academic Hall of Fame class in 2020. The fourth annual postThanksgiving MHSAA Holiday Pasta Party “was just spectacular,� said MHSAA Vice President Patricia Kelly (’80) in summing up the event at a recent Board of Directors meeting. “Everyone had a great time, even though not as many showed up as last year,� said event chair MHSAA Vice President Carol Scally (’64). Nearly 140 people came to the family-friendly event at Anthony’s function hall in Malden and enjoyed tables of delicious pasta, meatballs and sauce, and seeing their children dance and play to lively music while awaiting the arrival of Santa. Many
T
of Malden’s luminaries attended, including Mayor Gary Christenson (’86), but any attempt to name them all would likely miss some, and that would not be nice. They know who they are, and we thank them for their support. We also want to thank Albert Spadafora and his staff for a job well done. The board agreed the MHSAA will host a pasta party again next holiday season, and it promises to be better than ever in that it will be celebrating the fifth the alumni have sponsored to raise funds for scholarships and other student needs as determined by the principal. Next year will see the return of our Super 50-50 Raffle to the affair in addition to the dozens of raffle items donated by area businesses and generous benefactors. An example of how students benefit from the raffles: The money raised by 2018’s raffles was by itself nearly enough to pay
for a $1,000 scholarship, one of many the MHSAA awards every year, said MHSAA Treasurer Camille Colantuoni (’70). Also tops on 2019’s agenda are planning an induction ceremony for the MHS Alumni Hall of Fame for 2020. Taking over this effort is MHSAA board member Fran Mauriello (’61), who said he and his committee are looking forward to the search for worthy candidates who deserve recognition for bringing pride to the MHS family. The date for this event will be announced later, as well as instructions on how to make nominations.
