The Lyme-Old Lyme High School Safe Grad Committee is hosting a fundraising event at Jonathan Edwards Winery in North Stonington, Conn., this coming Friday, Nov. 16. The event will run from 6:30 to 9:30 p.m.
All ticket sales benefit the graduation night event for the Class of 2019. Tickets include a glass of wine of your choice, food and fun.
In addition to ticket sales, the winery is donating 25 percent of all wine sales that evening (either for consumption that evening or wine purchased as gifts or for the holidays to take home) back to Safe Grad.
Tickets can be purchased online at http://lolgradnight.com/jonathan_edwards_winery/
Food for the event has been generously donated by Cloud Nine Catering, Coffee’s Country Market, Dock 11 Café, Fromage Fine Foods, The Hideaway Restaurant & Pub and The Public House.
The event is open to anyone who would like to attend and help support a safe graduation for the Class of 2019.
The philosophy and ideals behind the Safe Grad Night party are interlinked with providing an evening that is fun, memorable and safe. More than “just a party,” the event is a commitment by parents to conduct a great, “once in a lifetime” extravaganza for the graduating seniors.
Grad Night is alcohol- and drug-free and allows the senior class to have one final evening together as a class to celebrate their graduation. The event lasts through the whole night and the seniors have no idea where the event will be held until they are on board the buses. History has shown that a significant majority of the senior class attends the event every year.
