Project Graduation Fundraiser
Now that we have a definite date for Graduation – we need to start planning for Project Graduation (well…planning actually started as soon as PG2012 was over) – help make this fun night happen for our seniors. Take the attached flyer to California Pizza Kitchen TOMORROW (lunch or dinner) and 20% of your check will go to Manual for Project Graduation. We’ve got our first game against KCD tomorrow – some pizza afterwards (for all who could join) could be a fun after game event!!!
Graduation Day for Manual has been set!
June 6th @ 3:00 pm at Freedom Hall
