For me and for many others, it was Saturday, March 7th at Boundary Stone Tavern in Bloomingdale for the “Make Some Noise” Fundraiser. Seems like ages ago, right? The Langley Elementary School Tiger Family was fortunate to get together one last time in person to continue fundraising efforts supporting the PTSA and the school as a whole.
Between the Family Band, the drum soloist from 7 Drum City, and the fantastic silent auction items, kids and adults alike had an amazing time. Thank you to everyone who came out and helped support Langley Elementary’s PTSA; we surpassed our fundraising goal of $5000.
We couldn’t have done it without: Boundary Stone for allowing us to use the space and graciously donating 20% of sales, 7 Drum City soloist Michael Lebbie for performing, Our Langley Family Band: Brent Robbins, Bill Phillips, Sujith Kumar, Joel Rose, Cashandra Bacon, Deedra Williams and Earle Llyod for crushing some amazing dance jams and getting everyone up on their feet and out on the floor!
A big shout out to the PTSA volunteers who planned this event, canvased the city collecting donations for our silent auction, and donated their time to work the event: Christina Robbins, Meredith Phillips, Emily DeWolf, Meg Dunne, Annie Wright, Lauren Kunis, Kathrin Frauscher, Rob Meek, Maryam Oladipupo, Julia Hedlund, Jennifer Scholtes, Jennifer Scholtes, Zack Gima, John Sullivan.
