Lincoln Clark Douglas Alumni History
In
the fall of 1977 a group of loyal sons and daughters of Douglass and
Lincoln gathered to plan a celebration of the Fiftieth Anniversary of
the opening of Lincoln School. It was planned for the third weekend of
August 1978. The lion was not dead. He was in hibernation, waiting for
the chance to emerge. Amid cheers, laughter, and tears he roared and
the spirit and the tradition was alive again. The Lincoln Clark Douglass Alumni Association was organized to keep the spirit alive. We are mindful of our community responsibilities.
We accomplish this through our:
- Scholarship Programs
- Donations to churches and various organizations in the community
- Active participation in the Evansville African American Museum
- Donation of Christmas Baskets to Needy Families
