We're Getting Ready for the Silver Jubilee Gala!

The Silver Jubilee Gala committee is busy planning an amazing party to commemorate 25 years of public Montessori at Ellis.  The gala will be from 7:30-10:30 on Friday, May 24 at beautiful Brockington Hall (www.brockingtonhall.com).  The evening will include heavy hors d'oeuvres and sweets, great music and dancing, commemorative favors, a signature drink, and a few other surprises!  Dress for a cocktail party, but black tie is welcome, too!

As you know, galas are quite pricy events.  We are working very hard to keep ticket prices as low as possible so we can include as many of our families as possible in the celebration.  Many people in the community have graciously offered their services to us at drastically reduced prices to help us keep this gala on the cheap.  While a ticket price has not been sent yet, we are excited to share that it will NOT exceed $35 a person.

Tickets will go on sale in the media center when formal invitations are sent soon after Spring Break.  But, we need to get a rough count of numbers so we can make orders for food, favors, etc. & decide on a fixed ticket price.  If you think you are going to attend the gala, please reply to me with the number of tickets you will be purchasing.  Please also share with me if you know of anyone besides yourself who may want to attend.  I can't emphasis enough the importance of getting at least a rough number of possible ticket purchasers by the end of the day Wednesday.  Our committee goal is to get at least 100 pre-orders by Wednesday, so talk it up!
