PARENT DINNER & AUCTION CONTRIBUTORS Parents Association Committee The goal of the Avon Old Farms Parents Association is to raise funds to enhance the academic, athletic, and extra-curricular experiences of the “Men of Avon” through the Student Enrichment Fund. The Parents Association, ably led by Co-chairmen Faith Margison P’09 and Lori Solomon P’08,’10, organized another very successful Blue Blazer Ball, which is the Association’s chief fund raiser. Thanks to the tireless efforts of the many dedicated volunteers and the generous bidding by those attending the auction, The Student Enrichment Fund received more than $104,000. In addition, parents, faculty, and friends raised their paddles that evening in support of the Outreach Scholarship Fund and enthusiastically committed almost $30,000 for that very important cause. Avon Old Farms School is deeply grateful to the Parents Association and to everyone who participated in making the evening so enjoyable and successful.
