Libbey High School
1250 Western Ave., Toledo, OH 43609

This is the only non-profit group dedicated to saving the Libbey High School campus.  We tried but did not succeed.  Now we work for the betterment of the neighborhoods that made Libbey such a rich environment.

contact lbaccus@netzero.net or grrreenrax@yahoo.com
The next meeting of the Trophy Committee for Libbey High School will be at theSamuel M. Jones at Gunckel Park Elementary School, 430 Nebraska, on Monday, May 21, 2012 at 6:00 PM.  Contact us if you would like to add to the agenda, or come yourself to the meeting.


We are trying to secure trophies (team and individual) that Libbey alumni have earned over the years.  If you would like to try to get the trophy that a member of your family won many years ago use the information on those pages to apply to TPS for that award.  So go to the photos sections, and look at the Gallery titled "Libbey trophies (team and individual)".  There are seven photos (each of a page on the list), and there is no order so do the work. 
 
Remember to visit the Blog.  If there some past information that still needs to be kept it will likely be there.

Below is a request from Sue Terrill, a member of the Libbey Alumni:

Dear former Libbey students,
 I am asking for your help in doing some quick research regarding the 106 Libbey students who died as a result of their service to our community during WWII. This will involve your volunteer time at the main library beginning April 16th through May 15th. 
 The plan is to have a compilation of at least the 106 obits and perhaps some amazing stories to accompany the future placement of the Libbey High School memorial to these souls.
 
If interested please leave a message at 419-531-3355.
 
The work is to begin immediately. Let's do the work for this memorial day of the 175th anniversary of the City of Toledo to honor these lives and the historical Luibbey Hiogh School tradition.
 
Today April 17th is Edward Libbey's birthday. Honor him and us.
 
Thank you!

We will be having a picnic (corrected date) Monday, May 14,2012 (starting at 6:00 PM followed by the alumni meeting).   It will be in the Walbridge Park fieldhouse on Broadway.  We will also be having elections then.  Check here for further updates as to the time.
