We are currently looking for sponsorship and band submissions, and the deadlines are fast approaching. This is the major fund-raising event for our school (March 27, 2020 @ The Marlay), and it helps pay for school supplies, field trips, and teacher grants, in addition to other school needs. We need your help to make this a successful event!
