Media Release 2nd Antique Preview Party, Auction and Dance Invitations Going Home in Backpacks Elementary and Middle School students will be arriving home this week with your invitation to the Groton Dunstable Education Foundation’s 2nd major fundraiser being held on October 8th, from 6 – 11 p.m. Please take a moment to complete the ticket order form and mail in your payment so you don’t miss out on attending this party which was sold out last year. The monies raised at this gala event will be used to enhance the success of our public schools by providing funding for innovative, inspiring programs and opportunities for the students in the GDRSD. Tickets can be purchased online by visiting www.gdefinc.org and clicking on Events. “Helping our Children Reach for the Stars” continues to be a goal of this non-profit organization. Many “Community Stars” from Groton and Dunstable are also shining at this event through creative auction donations that represent the many wonderful talents of folks in our two communities. Auction items for all types of interests and age groups – Sports and Recreation, Daytime and Overnight Summer and Winter Getaways, Artists and Artisans, Food and Spirits, Personal Care and Wellness, Kids' Corner, Learn Something New and Home and Garden have been donated. Jane Bouvier, host of Groton’s own Around Town cable show, is donating “Guest Host for an Evening”! Decoteau’s Orthodontics has generously contributed a $1000 gift certificate, and various area non-profits have donated items which will be auctioned off as the “Spirit of Dunstable” and “Spirit of Groton” packages. For a complete listing of these exciting auction items, please visit www.gdefinc.org. This exciting event was sold out last year and is looking to be a fun filled evening for all who attend. Watch for your invitation coming home in your child’s backpack (or in next week’s HS Newsletter). Invitations are also available now at The Main Street Café and Jos. Kilbridge Antiques in Groton, the Public Library in Dunstable and online at www.gdefinc.org. Don’t miss out on this opportunity to support publicly funded education and have a wonderful evening on October 8th!
