St. Gertrude’s Academy (SGA) Alumni from our local Camas Prairie area as
well cities around the Northwest gathered in the monastery chapel on
November 16, 2008 to sing hits from today and yesterday as part of the
second concert in our Centennial series: TRADITIONS SHAPING TOMORROW
– a celebration of our friends in music and story; honoring Benedictine
traditions of the past; celebrating present traditions at St. Gertrude’s
and featuring local and regional musicians.
The event honored faculty and students of the former
Academy, and St. Gertrude of Helfta – patroness of the monastery and SGA,
author and spiritual director. (November
16 is the Feast Day of St.
Gertrude of Helfta.) The concert opened
with a brief presentation about the traditions and values of St.
Gertrude, and how the sisters express these traditions and values today.
Audience members of all ages enjoyed participating in the fun -
especially the Academy's Fight Song.

Academy Fight Song
Listen
to the Fight Song
(MP3 format)
Faithful and true
hearted.
Let us cheer our dear old High.
We'll revere her and defend her,
And her colors proudly fly.
We will stand for her united.
Of her deeds we'll gladly tell.
Her colors streaming,
Glad faces beaming,
Let's give a cheer for her,
That we love so well.
Loyal and ever
faithful,
Let us cheer for our old High.
Let every heart sing.
Let every voice ring.
There's no time to grieve or sigh.
It's ever onward,
Our course pursuing.
May defeat ne'er,
Our ardor cool.
But united we will boost for our,
Old High School!
