Join us on Friday, January 24th from 6:30 PM to 8:00PM in the gym. Admission is just $5 per child, and kids under 3 get in FREE. Sorry, no big brothers or sisters this time, unless they’re ready to volunteer and join the fun! Adult admission is FREE. For all the details, check out our dance website.

But here’s the real scoop – the more, the merrier! We’d LOVE your help as a volunteer at the event. Most shifts are just 45 minutes long! Can't commit to volunteering, but still want to help out? We do need some donations as well. Click here for more info about volunteering or donating.

Mark your calendars, and let’s make this Neon Era the dance party of the year!

Volunteer for LWSF Pantry Packs

1/5/2025 11:58 am

Pantry Packs is a fantastic program from Lake Washington Schools Foundation that provides food packs to hungry children at Mark Twain Elementary and all schools in our district.

We are in need of 1 or 2 volunteer drivers that have a large vehicle that can shuttle Pantry Pack bins between Redmond and Mark Twain twice a month. Volunteers would need to be able to lift and stack bins on a rolling cart or dolly and bring into the school.

Please contact Ms. DeWalt ddewalt@lwsd.org if you are interested. Thanks so much!
