Great Gatherings @ GRS!

PLEASE CONSIDER HOSTING A GREAT GATHERING TO RAISE MONEY FOR GRS!!!

What is a GREAT GATHERING??

A Great Gathering is an event, a class, or party hosted by you with the goal of bringing our GRS parents, students, and friends together to have fun AND to raise money for GRS. Sometimes, people jointly host Great Gatherings with another friend or family. At the GRS SoirĂ©e on March 14thpeople sign up to participate in Great Gatherings that interest them and pay a fee to be part of the gathering. The amount raised from each gathering becomes a donation to the school.  At last year's Soiree, the money raised from Great Gatherings came to a total of more than $4000!  Great Gatherings take place in homes, at a park, at school, at a brewery/winery, on a ski slope, or just about anywhere else you can imagine(Click here for a list of  2017 Great Gatherings), you pick the date (between April 2018 and March of 2019), and the time.   You also set the number of participants for the event and the price of your event, which goes directly back to GRS!  Snacks and drinks /alcoholic beverages may be provided by the hosts and you may be asked to bring extra $ to cover supplies.  These events are a great way to build our GRS community and raise money, so please consider hosting a Great Gathering this year!
