 MSCA & COMMUNITY NEWS 

Lights Donation/Lending Request

In preparation for Light the Night, we need to borrow your lights! We can use string lights, rope lights, flood lights, spot lights, black lights, disco or party lights, exterior and interior, and extension cords! If you wish to donate lights to the MSCA for this and future use, please put a piece of tape on them and label, "MSCA." If you wish to have your lights returned to you after the event, please label with your name. Labeled lights and extension cords can be placed in the "light the night" bin on the Farmhouse porch. We appreciate your assistance in helping us light up Monty!

Class Baskets 

If you would like to take part in coordinating your grade's class basket for the Annual Benefit please let us know here. Provide your name and email address next to your grade level. We will be hosting a Zoom meeting the week of Feb. 6 to discuss details and to get everyone started.  Nikki Schilling P'28'31 has generously offered to lead this initiative again this year - thank you, Nikki!

 

Auction Items

The auction is a highlight of the Benefit and we work hard to make sure that we have a broad array of items, experiences, gift certificates, and experiences available. Our top requests are for sporting events and concert tickets (Taylor Swift anyone??) and golf outings. If you are able to donate to the auction you can do so online or you can contact Jessica Pullano. If you frequent local restaurants, spas, or stores we would love to have those types of gift certificates to include in the auction! Donations can be dropped off at any time at the Farmhouse.
