The Project, as well as the Reno High School Alumni Association itself, owes its creation to Bud Beasley. With the help of friends at a high school reunion, he pitched the idea of an alumni association to preserve the school’s tradition and memorabilia.
-
The Story of RHSAA 1995 – A plan was presented by educator and alumni, Bud Beasley to form an alumni association with a center to preserve the rich history of Reno’s high schools.
-
January 2000 – With the help of fellow alumni and community sponsors, the Reno High School Link Piazzo Alumni Center was completed.
-
2023 – RHSAA. The museum and alumni center tells the story of Reno before it was established as a city. Our rich history from 1879 is on display to share with the community.
