Tarkio High School Alumni Banquet organizers are hanging up their hats and looking for others to take over the planning, organizing, and hosting of the event, held each year on Memorial Day weekend. Over the years, Teresa Shaw, MaryAnn Hull, Barbie Lee, and Lydia Hurst have worked hard to make the THS Alumni Banquet a fun event that celebrates shared connections and memories. However, it’s now time to pass the torch to ensure this cherished tradition continues.

The alumni association needs an organizer, or a small group of people, who are passionate about the THS alumni community and would be willing to take on the responsibility of organizing the banquet. The ladies will provide guidance and support during the transition, sharing all the details, resources, and contacts needed to make it a smooth process. The banquet has always been a cornerstone of the alumni community and there are many Tarkio High School graduates and former schoolmates who come from all over the United States to attend.

If you are interested in taking on this role, please call Teresa at 660-582-7982 or MaryAnn at 660-744-4049, or message any one of the four ladies on Facebook as soon as possible, as it takes a while to organize this event. If someone is not found by April 1, 2025, to continue this tradition, there will be no more banquets.
