Friends of Schurz: There are few High Schools in America that can boast a real Pipe Organ in their auditorium, and even fewer that have them still completely intact! Older alums may well remember the Möller Pipe Organ used at concerts and assemblies. It was installed in 1935 and first heard in public concert on December 19,1935, seventy-five years ago this year! This treasure is in critical need of attention.

The newly formed Alumni Association has been in contact with the National Association of Organists, whose Chicago branch is hosting their National Convention in 2012. This organization is extremely interested in helping us re-build the “Grand Old Lady." The National Association for Organists and the Schurz Alumni Association would like to achieve this with your help.
