8th Grade EOY Dance, Friday, May 18th, 6:30-9pm, at Murchison
Hooray for Murchison! Hooray for 8th Graders! Hooray for the end of year Dance!
Wristbands will be available beginning Wednesday, May 16th. This year’s dance theme will be Hooray for Hollywood.
Eighth Grade Parents, the Planning Committee would like to make this year’s celebration a no-cost event for the kids so that all 8th graders have the opportunity to celebrate. To make this happen we are looking for parent and business sponsors. All amounts large and small are a huge benefit. All cash donations are tax deductible, and if sponsoring on behalf of your business limited advertising opportunities are available.
Prefer to not donate cash? We are also in need of gift cards in small denominations ($5, $10, $15) for giveaways throughout the event.
Please email us at 8thgradecelebrate@murchisonpta.org if you are able to help sponsor the dance.
