Wave Banquet Recap
Wave Families,
A few things to wrap up our banquet last Friday:
So awesome to see so many of you there at the event! For those of you who missed it, it was a great evening. The kids had a great time and it was probably our best run banquet. Each year we try to run it a little better. We have some ideas for next year, but we heard some positive feedback from this year’s banquet already so we are on the right track.
Thank you to:
1. Lorraine Masse for printing off the Top 16 Certificates, setting up and running the slide show, securing the venue, DJ and caterer.
2. Our booster board consisting of Shannon Kasperkiewicz, Elizabeth Bono, Debbie Love, Keri Stevenson, Kit Ko, Mae Lewis for all of their hard work and input
3. Debbie Love for taking care of the decorations and the graduating senior gifts
4. Lai Leng for stepping in and helping when we needed it
5. All the parents who stayed after to help clean up (there were many of you which made it go pretty fast!)
6. The coaches for doing a terrific job presenting their awards to their groups
