East Aurora Football Old Timers Scholarship Program:

East Aurora Football Old Timers Association has a history of supporting Tomcat Football. In recent years, there has been a lot of talk about continuing the tradition, and at the same time, contributing to a young man’s college fund. To that end, in 2009 the Old Timers Association created a scholarship program and awarded its first scholarship in the spring of 2010. The goal was to support the ongoing program by 50/50 raffles at the annual dinner and ongoing donations. The Old Timers Committee created a donation program so that ongoing donations can support the Scholarship Program for years to come. The committee has designated the following contribution levels:

$1,000 – East Aurora Old Timers HALL OF FAME AWARD
$500 – East Aurora Old Timers FULLBACK Award
$250 – East Aurora Old Timers HALFBACK Award
$125 – East Aurora Old Timers QUARTERBACK Award
$50 – East Aurora Old Timers TAILBACK Award

Proper recognition will be given to all donors. Please consider not only making one of the above donations but also don’t forget the East Aurora Football Old Timers Association in your Estate Planning. The generosity of past Tomcats can yield great dividends for current and future Tomcats. The East High Football Old Timers Association is a not-for-profit organization and all funds stay within the Association with 100% of the profits going into the scholarship fund and the Tomcat football program.

It is with a very heavy heart that we share the passing of Robert "Bob" McCue EA Class of 1956.

Bob has been the passionate caretaker of the East High Football Old Timers Association for many decades. Our deepest sympathy goes to his family. The family has generously named East High Football Old Timers Association as an organization to receive remembrance donations.

Rest in peace...
