About SHSAA

Welcome to the Sequoia High School Alumni Association’s official Web site. This medium allows us to reach so many more interested people than the printed word and with nominal cost. Our publication, Smoke Signals, is still our primary instrument in reaching card-carrying members of the SHSAA, which has surpassed 3000. We strongly encourage you to join.

For a Lifetime Membership fee of only $50.00 you will receive:

• A membership card
• A membership certificate suitable for framing
• A lifetime of our publications, Smoke Signals, (16 -24 pages, twice annually, at a production cost of $4,500 per issue. You can donate to Smoke Signals by check or our online form.)

You will find a membership application on this Web site. If you are not already a member, please join us. While we derive income from memberships, the sale of merchandise, and special events such as the Sports Hall of Fame Banquet and our Annual Picnic on campus, a major source of income is donations (see below). The date and other information about our events will be published elsewhere on this Web site.
