A message from Araxi Gundelfinger, Director of Advancement, pictured here at last year’s Wrap Party.
Your teachers are coming to party this Saturday, are you? Get your tickets and join over 40 of our teachers and their guests from every grade level to celebrate the end of this fantastic year!
What’s happening at the Wrap Party? Toast each other with a Mumbai & Tonic, the signature cocktail our own Michael Cecconi will be mixing up; or if wine strikes your fancy, sip some Alta Sauvignon Blanc, Pinot Noir or Cep Rose. Hollywood is on campus at the photo booth where yes, you will step away from your selfies with precious memories with your favorite people – print & digital files to take home and show the kids, or not! Our Madd Mex Cantina fusion fare will keep you energized through the new set of Bollywood moves that Shingari’s Bollywood Dance Instructors will teach to get everyone up on the dance floor. You’ll earn your trip down dessert lane, aptly located in front of Sweet Briar, and devour Jenn Pett-Ridge Hennessy’s Taj Mahal cake with both your eyes and taste buds. Spend time catching up with one of your teachers as you toast marshmallows at the Do-it-yourself s’mores bar. Also, rumor has it TBS has a donut wall to carb counter the evening’s imbibement.
Get your tickets now – it’s the party of the year!
Don’t want the night of fun to end? Let’s do it again and party with our teachers at these upcoming Pick-a-Parties!
Pick-a-Party joins the Wrap Party lineup this year with over 20 parties sure to be the highlight of our auction. Pick-a-Parties benefit TBS programs, with many hosted by our incredible faculty. From day-long hikes in Pt. Reyes, to movie night with Danette and Hillary, and the now legendary day-long mushroom foraging and feasting, there is a party for everyone, children and adults alike, all to keep connecting this wonderful community across shared passions.
Well, on Saturday night…. Here’s sneak peek of what you’ll see. At the Wrap Party, we’ll feature about 20 party events all taking place this spring through January. Each party will have a fixed number of slots and a fixed price per person to attend. All the money collected goes directly to support The Berkeley School. Click here for the complete list of FAQs.
Do you have an idea for a pick-a-party but need some help making it a reality? Just email us at pickaparty@theberkeleyschool.org and we’ll submit your idea to our Pick-a-Party matchmaker to find you a family to partner with! This is a great way to share both costs and labor and to meet other families who share your interests.
Can’t make it? Add your pick-a-parties and auction items to your Absentee Bidder Form and email it in or walk it in by this Friday at noon.
If the sitter comes through at the last minute, just come on down to the Wrap Party. Tickets will also be sold at the door. HOWEVER, if you know you’re coming, please buy your tickets today so we can plan accordingly for food and drink numbers.
See you Saturday night!!!
