Alumni NewsGarces Memorial Celebrates 60 years at the Holy BowlGarces Memorial High School opened its doors on September 10, 1947, as a co-educational, inter-parochial high school with anenrollment of 150 students. Garces Memorial has seen a lot of changes through the years. In the 1950’s, our campus grew to 400 studentsand today our campus consists of over 700 students. Our campus has changed and will continue to do so with the addition of the CerroScience Building and the Icardo Chapel and Religious Center for the 2008-2009 school year.Over the past 60 years, we have created numerous Garces Memorial traditions – Freshman Alley, Sophomore Benches, Junior Curb, andSenior Hill; Fall BBQ; GALA; The Holy Bowl; Monsignor Leddy Golf Tournament; Powder Puff Football; Campus Ministry; Bishop’sAward; Garces Award; Man of the Year; and many more that our alumni hold dearly. In honor of our 60 year anniversary, we are addingone more tradition – Hall of Honor.Garces Memorial also has a storied tradition of outstanding academic and athletic achievements. Last year’s graduating class had 100%of its students attending college. Garces Memorial graduates have gone on to be judges, authors, doctors, lawyers, teachers, nurses,athletes, community leaders, and more importantly, loyal alumni with many sending their children and grandchildren to GarcesMemorial. We have one of the most successful athletic programs in the CIF Central Section with 98 Valley Championship teams anddozens of individual championships in tennis, swimming, diving, track, cross country, and golf.In the fall, we began celebrating our 60 year anniversary at the Holy Bowl by recognizing alumni at the game by bringing them downonto Sam Tobias Field.
