Hey all you Seniors! Who’s going to Grad Night?

Grad Night tickets are currently on sale for $125 and coming up

mid-October, all Seniors have an opportunity to earn a free ticket to Grad Night by selling holiday trees, wreaths, and garland as part of the Grad Night Greenery Fundraiser. You can sell to your friends and neighbors, and if you sell as little as $300 of greenery, you get a free Grad Night ticket worth $125!

Envelopes with details inside will be passed out in one of your classes coming up in mid-October, so be on the lookout! Not only can you earn a free ticket, but the Fundraiser also supports a scholarship program for students that wouldn’t be able to attend due to financial reasons. So be on the lookout for your envelope and earn a free Grad Night ticket!!

Thank you for supporting LCC's Class of 2019!
