This event is a culmination of the efforts of the GRDC families and the community coming together to support our children’s education. The dedication of our parents, teachers and our many donors to GRDC is clear through ticket sales, services, money donations, sponsorships and countless hours spent pulling this event together. I consider myself lucky to be a part of such an amazing group of parents and educators who consistently put our children’s success and education first. Throughout the evening my hope is that we all keep in mind why we are here and we raise bids and our paddles high so we can continue to invest in our students, teachers and schools. It doesn’t hurt that we have a great time while we are doing it! Throughout the year I invite you to reach out and express new ideas, thoughts or concerns when you have them. The GRDC PTO is here to support all students K-8 and are truly the most successful when we all come together and work as a team. I look forward to a fun and very successful evening. Bid Big and Have Fun! Emily Lewis GRDC PTO President 2015-2016 A MESSAGE FROM THE CRAB FEED AUCTION CHAIRS Are you ready for the year’s largest “fun-raiser”?! We are thrilled to enjoy this SOLD-OUT evening with the families, staff, and friends of Gold River Discovery Center. The 3rd Annual Crab Feed and Auction has something for everyone starting with an amazing dinner and auction, to the crowd-favorite Dessert Dash, cocktails, dancing, and the best group-selfies money can buy! #CrabFeed2016. We invite you to bid big on fantastic silent auction items and vie for fabulous live auction features, adventure packages, and one-of-a-kind art pieces made by our kids and members of the community. In addition to this evening's auction, you also have the opportunity to fund a much-needed stage screen and lighting for the GRDC multipurpose room through the Fund-A-Need campaign. As we enjoy this event together, it is important to remember why we are here…to support the continued growth and success of our incredible school and its dedicated teachers and staff! This event is made possible through the tireless work of so many people. We would not be able to do it without the tremendous support of our families, friends, and the GRDC administration and staff. We are so grateful for the GRDC community, which has helped make tonight a smashing success. Enjoy the evening and bid your hearts out! We look forward to joining you on the dance floor after the auction!
