The Finneytown Alumni Network (FAN) has announced its expanded 2025 Alumni Weekend, September 25-27, featuring the popular Alumni Golf Scramble at The Mill Course on September 26. Led by a team including Jason Gardner, Jeff Smoker, Parker Payne, and Rick Payne, the event aims to double last year’s participation. Additional activities include Homecoming events, a Hall of Fame induction, and an alumni gathering. More details will be available on the FAN website.

The 2024 Legacy Ceremony was a powerful testament to the enduring spirit of Finneytown’s past, present, and future. This year, we gathered to celebrate two monumental additions to the Finneytown Hall of Fame: Jan Bennett, the beloved women’s soccer coach, and the legendary 1974 men’s state soccer champions. The event was filled with heartfelt tributes, laughter, and the unmistakable sense of community that continues to define Finneytown.

As the Legacy Ceremony concluded, it was clear that the event was not just a reflection of the past but a rallying cry for the future. With the groundbreaking of the new secondary campus, Finneytown continues to build upon the foundation laid by leaders like Jan Bennett and the 1974 soccer team. Their stories serve as a reminder that greatness is possible when we come together as a community—whether on the field, in the classroom, or in life.

The inaugural Finneytown Alumni Weekend was a tremendous success, and one of the standout events was our first-ever Finneytown Alumni Golf Scramble! Alumni from across generations came together, making it a fantastic way to kick off what will become an annual tradition!
