Save the date for our 2023 events!
The East High School Alumni Association Events Committee is pleased to announce its 2023 events for EHS alumni! Mark your calendars and start saving the dates – we’re looking forward to seeing you next spring!
Annual Big E Dinner – Moved to March 27, 2023
The Big E Dinner, originally planned for Nov. 14, has been moved to March 27, 2023 to give our committee more time to plan ahead, and to ensure a great turnout as we bring back this annual in-person event. Everyone will still be able to enjoy fare at one of our favorite Des Moines establishments, Chuck’s Restaurant.
This event is usually held in the fall, but this change will be a great way to kick off the year. We look forward to seeing you – please stay tuned for more details and ticket sales.
Annual East High Golf Classic
The Annual East High Golf Classic will be held May 12 and 13 at Copper Creek Golf Club in Pleasant Hill. Be on the lookout this spring for more information and registration details.
The 145th All-Alumni Scarlet Celebration
The All-Alumni Scarlet Celebration will be held Friday, June 9, at Prairie Meadows Events Center in Altoona. Please note the new month/date and new venue for 2023.
Next year will mark our 145th gathering of the All-Alumni Scarlet Celebration, and we’re excited to partner with Prairie Meadows to host this year’s event. We believe the Prairie Meadows Event Center will serve our alumni well with convenient and ample parking, and easy access for everyone.
Plus, attendees are welcome to gather at Prairie Meadows Racetrack & Casino before or after the event. Purchase your tickets beginning next spring and stay tuned for more details in the coming months.
