The Wooster School Gala will be held on Saturday, May 14 at 6:00 pm on the Wooster School Coburn Lawn and Dining Room.
Tickets are on Sale! $100 per person will provide you with an epicurean, locally sourced farm to table feast, an open bar to cleanse the palette, a selection of amazing experiences and products to bid on, and a live Blue Grass band to shake down to, all under the tent on Coburn Lawn. Don't miss out on this night of fun, food and fundraising to celebrate our community. We have only 200 tickets available, visit our auction website at: http://woosterschool.
What's New at the Gala: This year we are using auction software to help us run the event. When you buy your tickets, you will have the opportunity to make an account. This will be useful because you can check-in, bid on auction items, and check out all from your smart phone! It's super easy. Don't have a smart phone? Not to worry, we will have bidding stations and volunteers through out the night to assist.
