Tim Purdy Fund
In the 1993-94 school year the forensics community lost one of its most
spirited competitors, Tim Purdy. Soon after Tims death the Bonanza
Forensics Team, the Purdys, and local businesses cooperated by developing
a
fund to preserve this activity for those who could not afford it. So
weask,
if possible, for donations of any amount, to perpetuate this fund for
future
competitors.
