Clash of the Classes Challenge
Results by Class as of 9/17/2009
Total = $7,553.00

If you are an alumnus of the Leadership Training Program, then you probably believe that your class was the best ever. Friendships forged, contacts made, skills and knowledge shared.

You might be surprised to learn that other graduates view their LTP class as the best ever, and they are setting about to prove it once and for all!

Coordinated by Kay Kuhn ’02, representatives from the LTP classes 1998 – 2009 created the Clash of the Classes Challenge to raise $4,000 for LTP scholarship funds, and to have fun while reconnecting.

Class Captains Sara Hunt '98, Francine Throne '99 and Adrienne Ketterman '99, Jim Chiaruttini '00, Kay Kuhn '02, Heather Hallman '03, Sheldon Yourist '04, Diane Hill '05, Tina Gingerich '06 and Joey Stover '06, Kraig Hursh '07 and Kris Marino '07, Doug Lehigh '08 and Shanna Wiest '08, Mike Heist '09 and Carolyn Crawford '09 are coordinating their classes’ efforts. You can be part of the celebration hosted by Leadership York if your class raises the most money by August 31.

All funds raised through the Clash of the Classes Challenge will provide scholarships for members of the LTP Class of 2010. Scholarships make it possible for LTP members to benefit from the opinions and experiences of people employed by nonprofits, or who are community volunteers, as well as people from mid-and large-size businesses.

If your LTP class graduated earlier than 1998 and you believe that your class may be the best class ever at raising funds for LTP scholarships, please contact Hollie Walkley in the Development Office at Leadership York to sign up for the Challenge!
