CHS: Inspiring girls to discover and pursue their personal exellence.

This year, the 26th Annual CHS Golf Classic will take place on May 31 at the University Golf Club. The event supports enhancing the CHS Athletics program and athletic facilities.

Crofton House alumnae have a long history with the Golf Classic. Debbie Pippen ’71, organized the first 'women only' tournament, and in 1999, Jane Gray ’73 and Cathy Christopher ’73 followed in her footsteps.

As always, this year will see a dedicated group of alumnae joining the event. Good luck!

Last year we came together to celebrate the School's 125th birthday and highlight its long and illustrious history. We thank everyone who has since donated historical items to the Crofton House School Archives. Your donations help to further enrich our historical collections and strengthen our connection to Crofton House's history. If you are interested in tdonating report cards, yearbooks, badges, and more to the Archives, please contact Manda Haligowski, Archivist, at archives@croftonhouse.ca.
