Spring PAC FUNdraising, Saturday May 14, 2016
Early-bird tickets until March 4th are $79/person, and include a reception style dinner, silent & live auctions, DJ/dancing and lots of fun!
Tickets can be purchased through Muncha-Lunch. If you are unable to attend the Gala, there is also a “$ Sponsor” option available on the Muncha-Lunch webpage.
Your contributions are greatly appreciated! 100% of all net funds raised go towards our children. In one week, already 25% of the tickets have been sold so don’t delay!
Here's where the $$$ goes-
- All funds raised go directly towards, improving technology tools at the school, and fully fund programs like ‘Dance In Schools’, ‘Gymsense’ and the ‘Cow Man’ etc...
- This is the PAC’s primary fundraiser, and only happens every 2 years, so we need your support. Every child in the school benefits from the generous contributions of the parent community.
