NIGHT OF THE DRAGON PLANNING COMMITTEE KICK-OFF MEETING
Thursday, September 5 from 11:30 a.m.-12:30 p.m.
The Governor's School Foundation is looking for parents to serve on the planning committee for the Night of the Dragon auction. Our first meeting is set for Thursday, September 5 at 11:30 a.m. in MLWGS room 153. Please email Suzannah Stora at the Governor's School Foundation if you are interested in attending. The Night of the Dragon auction is Maggie Walker's biggest fundraiser event of the year, last year yielding more than $75,000 to support the faculty and students at MLWGS! Serving on the committee is a great way to get involved and meet fellow parents and MLWGS alumni. This year's event is scheduled for leap day, Saturday, February 29, 2020 at the John Marshall Hotel.
