Attention Northwestern Alumni from the 1957 HS Basketball Teams or Alumni from 1956 or earlier…. Northwestern HS Alumni Association, Mendon, MO

We have exciting things planned this year to commemorate the 70th Annual Northwestern Tournament from December 1-6, 2025. If you know anyone that played high school basketball at Northwestern in February 1957 we want to get in contact with them! In February of 1957 the 1st Annual Northwestern Basketball Tournament was played. So far Connie Doss (Class of 1957), Carole Kennedy (Class of 1958) and Lois Doss (Class of 1960) are planning to attend as Honorary Captains due to playing in the 1st Annual Tournament. We would love to add to this list of Honorary Captains that we recognize during Tournament Week.

We are also including as Honored Guests anyone that graduated from 1956 or before. Thus far Beverly Linscott (Class of 1955) and Dale/Hilda Sayler (Class of 1956) are making plans to attend as Honored Guests.

Please contact Mr. Clark, Superintendent at (660) 675-0101 or by email (tclark@northwestern.k12.mo.us) to help us add more Honorary Captains and/or Honored Guests to the list.

Please welcome Kerri Zeilstra to our board!

Kerri will be an asset as she has family history with the cemetery and working knowledge of maintaining the grounds. Kerri is a resident of the area and is married to Tom.

We appreciate Kerri's willingness to serve on the MCA Board.

I'm very thankful for our Board Members!

Dale Moore, Alan Martin, Rosemary Lawson, Ellen Lincoln, Kelly Meyer, Alana Wilson, Cheryl Keim and Larry Stephenson.

Every Annual Meeting they show up. In between meetings they do dozens of tasks for the cemetery. We rarely have anyone else attend these meetings and all are welcome.

That said when a family, funeral home, or monument company reaches out we are always there to respectfully assist them at no charge.

The board is asking if you can... please come join us and maybe you might want to serve on the board.

We need YOU to consider a donation and when the time comes we appreciate any consideration for memorial gifts. Your cemetery's revenue comes from donations and memorial gifts. We haven't charged dues for decades.

Please send your contributions to our Treasurer: (They are tax deductible as we are an IRS approved Non-profit Organization)

Alan Martin, 610 N Polk St, Brunswick, MO 65236

If you see one of our Board members please thank them for their support.

Best,

About 20 people attended the Memorial Day service yesterday. Thanks to the Brunswick American Legion for presenting the laying of the wreaths, color guard, a short speech and taps. The cemetery looked very nice!

The winds earlier this week wrecked havoc on our locator board. It's been taken down. We have a solution but Dale suggested we wait until spring to put it back up. Monday night I had 36 mph wind at my house.

New locator board has been placed at the cemetery, here are some pictures.

We are in the final phase of updating the grave site locator board for the cemetery. This has been a huge undertaking and will cost around $1,200.00. Our hope is to have it completed by the July Annual Board meeting. Maintenence costs also continue to rise. We are asking you to make a donation to the cemetery. Please send your donation to our Treasurer:
