Honoring Stephanie Smith

Celebrate Stephanie Smith’s Lumberjack Legacy!

As we bid farewell to Stephanie Smith, a devoted Lumberjack whose leadership, commitment, and friendship have touched us all, we invite you to honor her Lumberjack legacy in a meaningful way.

Stephanie's unwavering support for NAU and the Lumberjack Marching Band embodies the true spirit of the university. As a farewell gift in her honor, we’re rallying to raise $10,000 to support the band’s once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to perform at the 2025 Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade. 

This special gift will sponsor five students’ trips to New York City, ensuring they can be part of this unforgettable experience.

To commemorate Stephanie’s legacy, she will receive a unique VIP experience, including:

• The opportunity to conduct the band during pregame.
• On-field recognition during halftime.
• A framed photo of her name or company logo spelled out by the Lumberjack Marching Band in a scripted formation—a heartfelt tribute to her incredible impact!
