Nominations to the Malden High School Alumni Association Hall of Fame for 2018 are in and the selection process is under way.

MHSAA Vice President Diane Lind, MHS ’54, told board members this week the new nominations will be pooled with nominations left over from previous years and submitted to a special independent selection committee.

That committee is to meet March 19 to winnow down the list to those who will be inducted at a gala banquet Friday, May 4, at Anthony’s Function Hall in Malden.

Tickets for the affair are available from members of the MHSAA board (click on Officers on our website, www.maldenhighalumni.com), and at other locations to be announced later.

A program book for the event is being prepared and advertisements are being solicited to help support this program. Advertisement forms and prices are also available on the website. Also you can contact Leonard Iovino at lvi_mps@yahoo.com or John Froio at jfroio38@verizon.net.

The purpose of the Hall of Fame, founded in 2014, is to recognize MHS alumni for exceptional achievement in their chosen careers and/or for their outstanding contributions to the Malden community and beyond.

MHS alumni are eligible to be nominated to the Hall of Fame 10 years after graduation.

This year’s inductees were selected from the following categories: arts, business, community service, education, government, media, military, sciences, technology, or other.

More information on the Hall of Fame is available at our website, www.maldenhighalumni.com. Look under About Us to see those selected in 2014, 2015 and 2016.
