It is the perfect blend of athletics, academics, music and community. The Edmonds Woodway High School third annual auction and community party takes place on Saturday, March 19, 2011, from 5:00 to 10:00 p.m., at the Lynnwood Convention Center. This year, all Edmonds Woodway High School 501(c)(3) charitable support organizations – including the Parent Staff Organization who are joining in the fun! The theme, "Go for the Gold…a Journey to the Top” is sure to raise the roof! Now, more than ever, the time is right to gather as a community in support of tomorrow’s leaders: our student athletes, scholars and musicians.
“With yet more budget cuts pending, our school’s athletic, academic, music and extra-curricular programs rely heavily upon the support of local merchants and the entire community as a viable means of both financial and moral support,” says Matt Douglas, President-Elect of the EW ABC. Auction Director Michael Cuzzetto emphasizes, “The annual auction is a phenomenal event; and the proceeds this year will provide much needed resources to fund athletic, academic and music programs, as well as scholarships to cover fees required for participation. We’re grateful that the town of Edmonds understands these students are our future and believes that each child who wants to participate in sports, clubs and music should not be prohibited by cost.”
The planning committee is in full gear and volunteers are needed and welcome. Many hands make light work, and all are invited to volunteer and join the weekly planning meetings. The committee guarantees a lot of fun, along with the thrilling reward of meeting the tremendous needs of our high school’s students, coaches and teachers.
Tickets for this year’s auction are $50 (a Table of Ten is $450) if purchased prior to February 15. After February 15, prices will be raised to $60 for individual tickets and $550 for a Table of Ten. Your ticket includes the entire auction package along with a delectable sit-down dinner and your choice of entrée! There will also be a cash bar with your favorite libations.
