The countdown is on! Only two weeks remain until the event Granby Parents for a Safe Graduation (GSPG) has been planning all year! GSPG has been working hard to create a memorable evening to celebrate the Class of 2024.
The party, held Graduation Night (June 7, rain date June 10), absolutely cannot happen without volunteers. The committee has done the legwork, now volunteers are needed to help with day-of-event preparation and chaperoning the party itself. The event is typically chaperoned by underclass parents – parents of seniors are not allowed! – so it is important for new volunteers to step up each year. If you are interested in learning more about helping with the party, please email granbyparentssafegrad@gmail.com
We are also approaching the time that our fabulous flock of flamingoes will be migrating south until next year. So, if you want to send this bright and cheerful flock to visit a friend or relative for a $25 donation, this is the last call. Email granbyparentssafegrad@gmail.com and schedule your flocking today.
The highlight of our Grad Night celebration is the student raffle. GPSG works hard to ensure every student goes home with a prize. We are still collecting donations of prizes. If you would like to contribute, we recommend gift cards for Door Dash/Grub Hub, Amazon, other retail stores, gas stations, Visa gift cards—remember that Granby students’ post-graduation plans take them across the country (and sometimes the world!). You can also donate cash to help us purchase prizes as necessary and to support the party itself. Contributions of gift cards or cash can be mailed to: Granby Parents for a Safe Graduation, Attn: Treasurer, P.O Box 81, Granby, CT 06035, or you can email granbyparentssafegraduation@gmail.com to arrange pick-up or Venmo details.
Granby Parents for a Safe Graduation is an all-volunteer, nonprofit group that organizes a substance-free Grad Night celebration for GMHS graduates each year. GPSG is unaffiliated with the Granby Public Schools; the Graduation Night party is completely funded by our fundraising efforts and generous donations from the community. We’d like to take this opportunity to say a big THANK YOU to all those organizations, businesses and individuals who have supported our organization and events throughout the past year.
Please consider being a part of this proud Granby tradition—we are looking forward to celebrating the Class of 2024!
