The Purpose
For those who are unfamiliar, the main purpose of Bash is to support our beloved school through ticket sales and a live auction at the event, while bringing the parents, teachers and staff of our community together for a fun adult evening out. It makes a HUGE difference to the well-being of the school and funds are IMMEDIATELY put to use.
The Fun
The kid-free event includes a catered dinner, open bar, music, dancing, and a professional auctioneer who makes the bidding wars on our fabulous auction prizes extra fun! We also run a separate online silent auction and encourage sharing it with outside-of-FPP friends and family members. Dress up, or don’t; it’s up to you.
Money Raised Goes To
Fund a need. This year, the school would love to raise $20K to expand the playground shade structure to connect the playground door to the Dragon Goal entrance, keeping the kiddos and teachers out of the elements between those areas. In years past, the proceeds from Bash have paid for a new roof and the incredible renovated playground. Funds also go to the upkeep of the building and grounds, PTC events like pizza days and more.
