Maloney Alumni Scholarship Goes Coconuts!

Maloney Alumni Dollars for Scholars kicked off their 2025-2026 fundraising campaign with an October 18 event at the Meriden Elks Lodge featuring Coconuts unique brand of musical entertainment, comedy and cabaret. Proceeds went to benefit the Maloney Alumni Dollars for Scholars Fund, which continues on in the tradition of the Maloney High School Alumni Scholarship Fund with presenting financial awards each year to select Maloney seniors who will pursue higher education after they graduate. Coconuts, the "boomer humor" music and comedy band formed 48 years ago by three Maloney High School graduates, brought their expanded Coconuts Cabaret, "bigger band," line-up, to the stage at the Elks Lodge in a special show that was enjoyed by all.
