Celebration of Scholarship and Service Important Update

The April 16 Celebration of Scholarship and Service is being moved to Vino Beano located at 1309 Thomasville Road. Parking is behind the building, off 6th Avenue and the start time is still 5:30 PM.

Attendees will enjoy snacks and soft drinks; other beverages are available at individual attendee’s expense.

The silent auction will take place so please bring your auction items with you. There are several themed baskets coming, as well as some scrumptious baked goods.

Due to this change, we have temporarily reopened registration through Sunday, April 14.
