Our Music Boosters Spring Gala Dinner is this April 14th at the Edmonds Community College. This is an annual fundraising event that includes dinner, raffles, silent auctions, and music by the Drumline, Jazz I & II, Mello-aires, and the Chamber Orchestra. We encourage all our parents to attend and support our Music Program at EWHS! The Gala committee is in need of parents that are willing to host a table. It is very easy to do - ask 6-7 friends or family to join you at the Gala - that's it! Contact Deb Anderson for more information, morosi93@hotmail.com . Freshmen parents - I (Sarah) would be happy to help create a Freshmen Parent's table - if you'd like to come but are unsure how it all works or who you'd sit with - contact me at sdemun@comcast.net Basketball Play-Offs Begin This Week!
