Commemorative Benches

As a way for the Class of ‘74 to say “thank you” to LaGrange College, the reunion committee recommends placing a bench where students can take a load off, visit with friends and just add to their memories.  The bench will have a plaque attached with a message from our class. The current wooden benches have been well used for years but have become weathered and worn. The thought is to replace one with a high-quality steel and powder-coated bench that will last for many years. The cost is $2500 for one of these sturdy benches which will be placed on the Caswell Plaza between Lewis Library and Pitts Dining Hall. 

Please make your gift by July 31 below or mail a check to LaGrange College, Martha Pirkle, 601 Broad Street, LaGrange, GA 30240. Please note “1974 Legacy Bench” on your form of payment. Contact one of us if you need additional information.

The dedication of our bench will take place as part of our 50^th reunion if we reach the goal by July 31.
