Support Athletics in Amherst

Support Athletics in Amherst - Monte Carlo Night - March 13!

As you probably know, the athletics budget at the regional level is being cut yet again, and the likelihood is that in the coming years, the only funding for athletics will be for the Athletic Director's salary.

This means all coaches and equipment must be paid for through fund raising efforts.

You may think this does not pertain to you at the elementary level, but your children will soon be in middle and high school, and without support, sports teams may be cut before your child can take advantage of the opportunity.

So...

Get your tickets now for MONTE CARLO NIGHT! Saturday, March 13, at Valentine Hall on the Amherst College Campus. This adults only event is a fabulous chance to get out of the house, see your friends, gamble (with funny money), dance, and more. You are not required to dress formally, although some people do take the opportunity to put on the black tie and gown!
