Hello 2023 Seniors and Parents!
Your 2023 Grad Night Foundation is already hard at work planning your drug and alcohol free GRAD NIGHT PARTY!
Did you know that it costs around $25,000 or more to pay for an all-night grad party? That amount includes paying third party companies to provide transportation, insurance, activities, entertainment, and food... Not to mention all of the amazing prizes we will have! We depend on proceeds from fundraisers, donations, and ticket sales to keep the celebration as affordable as possible for each senior.
We will be having our first PARENT meeting on Wednesday, September 28th at 6:30 pm in room C44 at BGHS. Please plan on attending to learn more about how you can help. If you have any questions, please contact us at bghsgradnight@gmail.com.
