BBQ, Tea, Wine, Dance and Mai Tais! MERCY PARENT CLUB HOSTS EVENTS

The Mercy Parent Club started the school year with a Welcome Barbeque for parents and faculty in September. It was an evening filled with great excitement as new parents joined our school community and returning parents renewed friendships after summer break.

Next came the traditional Mother Daughter Tea for moms, daughters and grandmothers who enjoyed a beautiful sit-down tea in the Mansion in October.

Then in November “A Taste and Take Wine Event” was a huge hit with wine lovers, vintners and connoisseurs! The event featured more than 10 wineries with many of the winemakers present who discussed their wines with our guests. The Mercy Parent Club provided exquisite hors d’ oeuvres and 50% of all wine sales were donated to Mercy by the wineries.

In January, Mercy dads and daughters came to our Father Daughter Dance, an evening filled with music, games and dancing! We also honored all of the dedicated teachers, staff and administration in February with our Faculty/Staff Appreciation Luncheon, a tradition started more than 25 years ago.

Parent volunteers are busy getting ready for “Mai Tais at the Mansion” which will take place in March. Hope you can join us for this fun, spirited fundraising event that includes a silent and live auction.

Special thanks to our MPC officers, event chairs and dedicated parent volunteers who make these events possible!
