Bid-for-Kids Dinner Auction
Each year in November, hundreds of volunteers create a spectacular
evening at Bid-for-Kids. Unique themes and creative decorations
transport attendees to interesting places and times where they
have the opportunity to bid on over 400 exciting prize packages.
From the silent auction and the ticket auction to the dream
trip raffle and the live auction, there’s something for
everyone at LuHi’s biggest fundraiser of the year.
LuHi Open Golf Outing
Long Island's premier golf event, the LuHi Open is among the
most successful golf outings in the area. Included in the
program is a great day of golf and fantastic food at the beautiful
Tam O'Shanter Club, Brookville. Festivities conclude with
the Rev. Ed Visscher Awards Dinner where friends of the school
are honored for support and involvement in activities that
enrich the lives of young people. Funds raised from the LuHi
Open and Awards Dinner support school programs, as well as
scholarships in memory of The Reverend Ed Visscher.
Homecoming & Class Reunions
LuHi's Homecoming and Class Reunions are not to be missed! Old
friends are happy to re-connect with the school and each other,
as record numbers of alumni come home to LuHi. Amidst the beauty
of October's fall foliage, graduates come from across the country
for the opportunity to smile into familiar faces and introduce
their families to classmates.
Sports activities are always exciting at Homecoming and are
well attended by alumni, current students, parents, faculty,
and friends of the school. The annual Road Rally is competitive
fun with student and adult teams racing to win bragging rights.
After the football game, an alumni reception in the mansion
courtyard hosts visitors from near and far. Food and fellowship
are followed by evening events at local restaurants arranged
by alumni volunteers who invite classmates together for reunions.
Other events for alumni include the Ryan Lynch Charity Football Game, the Winter Alumni Reception at LuHi Basketball, and the biennial Career Day.
Campaign
In January 2008, Long Island Lutheran launched ROOTED IN FAITH, GROWING IN EXCELLENCE, a 6-year campaign to support a number of crucial projects at the school. As funding is received, goals will commence, including new classroom windows; five completely renovated science laboratories; an artifical turf game field; renovations to ourdoor game fields and tennis courts, support buildings for outdoor athletics; as well as ongoing projects including Christian service; technology upgrades; curricular offerings; campus renovations, "green projects," and growth of the Memorial Endowment Fund.
