The 2022 Chesterton Gala
By Joanne Alloway
Our annual, most fun, elegant and exciting fundraiser is in the works, planned for Saturday, November 12th!
This year it will be held at the Byzantium, a gracious, inviting venue on Riva Road on the grounds of the Ss Helen & Constantine Greek church in Annapolis.
Each year, this event is lauded as a wonderful way to meet other parents, prospective parents, our students, teachers, staff and board members at Chesterton, as well as the many other supporters and benefactors of our school. Additionally, the students attend and personally perform with music and dance, in delightful segments. The comradery between all is evident, and the food is always excellent – and always provided locally.
As the Gala is our primary fundraising event, we do our best to make it an evening all will enjoy and return to enjoy each year. Revenue from ticket sales goes primarily to keeping our tuition costs low and for upkeep at the school.
Early single tickets – purchased before October 15th – will be $90, and cost $100 after that. Tables for a group of 8-10 people are $1000. Last year we had a waiting list for tickets; so please don’t wait until the last minute! We really enjoy meeting everyone, having the time to chat unhurriedly.
Don’t forget, we always have the Auction Tables, offering the chance to win many types of services and merchandise from our local vendors, and an online Silent Auction before the Gala. Please consider joining us for fellowship, fun, festivity and making new friends!
