The Dance-a-Thon was a HUGE SUCCESS!

A sincere thank you to everyone who attended, donated, and danced (or sponsored a dancer) at Friday night’s “Dance for the Playground” dance-a-thon! We were fortunate to have representatives from Wildwood, Fort River, Crocker Farm, the ARHS Dance Theater Ensemble, CF Staff, ARPS administration and a couple of Amherst's civic leaders strutting their stuff on the dance floor. Everyone helped raise an astonishing $5,000 for the playground! This moves our playground total to just over $11,000.

The night could not have been successful without our bakers and food table volunteers who kept the almost 200 people fed and hydrated. DJ (and CF dad) Benny Black kept the party rocking with great tunes.

The "I helped build the Crocker Farm Playground" T-shirts were received enthusiastically. Look for details on how to get yours later this week!

All student pledge forms with outstanding pledges will be returned on Monday to students. Please collect those final pledges and return them in your child's backpack. Questions? Please contact the PGO at crockerfarmpgo@gmail.com.



Thanks again,
