The Gala is a fantastic community celebration where guests enjoy an evening of spirited bidding and community building. It is the largest fundraiser for the school, with over $294,000 raised last year. There are many ways for families to get involved with the Gala!
Attend the Gala
Join us for the 23rd FASPS Gala at the Golf Club at Newcastle. This beautiful venue is situated on 350 acres with panoramic views of Mt. Rainier, the Olympic and the Cascade mountains. Come early to buy your golden ticket, play the wine toss game and enjoy the cocktail hour with friends while bidding on the great silent auction items. All class projects will be on display during the silent auction. You'll enjoy a wonderful seated dinner as the live auction takes place. For added excitement, the fast paced dessert dash will hopefully get you and your table guests a most desirable sweet treat to enjoy. Buy your tickets and encourage your friends, family, neighbors, and colleagues to attend with you - all are welcome.
