Organized on May 2, 1884

The association’s anniversary history dates its organization to May 2, 1884. The surviving account provides a precise founding milestone, while this public feature avoids reproducing an unreviewed membership list or adding officers not independently resolved.

A North Shamokin Street Beginning

The organizational meeting took place at the North Shamokin Street home of A. G. Shissler. That setting places the association within the city’s residential and civic network without assigning a modern map point to an address that has not been reconciled.

Scholarship Milestones

The commemorative history dates a Scholarship Fund to 1922 and development of a Scholarship Trust Fund to 1947. These dates show alumni support continuing across generations, but award amounts, recipient names, and an annual sequence have not been established.
