COMMUNITY News:

Ross Ramsey’s 114th birthday, Oct. 27, 1911, is being celebrated. The public is invited to join the celebration by contributing $114 to the Ross and Lola Ramsey Scholarship Fund. Since its establishment in 2023 when Los Alamos High School created the Ramsey Stage at the Smith Auditorium, the scholarship fund has supported four students as they pursue a college degree at the college of their choosing.

Any Los Alamos High School alumni who attended high school in Los Alamos between 1951 and 1974, know that the Ramseys played a profound role in shaping the lives of thousands of students who participated in the performing arts. In front of—and behind—the curtain. The Ramseys helped students find and develop their potential as they participated in plays, musicals, and the storied Topper Revue. It’s time to pass on to the next generation the benefits we all gained by participating in the Olions.
