🔹GLOW DANCE RECAP
We had a great time at last friday's Glow Dance! A huge thank you to the many volunteers who helped bring it together. We want to give a special shoutout to those who went above and beyond:
🌟 Planning Team: Jenny Zuniga, Lindsay Mune, Meghan Garretson, Michelle Pilling, Kendra Penhallegon, Rebecca Klein, and BESCA VPs of Events, Kelly Broder and Keara Simonetti. These ladies spent countless hours planning every detail to ensure the night went off without a hitch!
🌟 Music: DJ Christian Rober kept the floor full and the energy high all night long.
🌟 Decor: Sarka Hertus and Zuzana Hranova worked tirelessly behind the scenes to create that stunning balloon display.
🌟 Emcee: Stephanie, a dedicated member of the WG community, brought her energy to all three dances as the emcee for the evening. If you are interested in hiring Stephanie for an event, you can reach her at: Allegradance.community@gmail.com
🌟 Louie: Eli Wilson brought plenty of personality to the dance floor and kept the crowd entertained as Louie.

🔹SEE'S CANDY FUNDRAISER
Through March 20th, BESCA is partnering with See’s Candy for a yummy spring fundraiser. Similar to our Dining Night Outs, this is an optional way to support our school. When you buy some delicious chocolates, a portion of your purchase goes back to Booksin. (BESCA earns around 20% of the purchase price, depending on the item). Treats can be ordered directly through this link, and See’s will ship purchases straight to the buyer’s doorstep.
You can share our link with family and friends anywhere in the U.S., so supporters who live out of town can participate too. Thanks for considering this sweet way to support Booksin!

Attention Bulldogs! You asked, we delivered! Booksin Spiritwear is available for online purchasing NOW through mid-May. It’s the perfect chance to show your Booksin pride and update your spring wardrobe. Shop the BESCA SPIRITWEAR SHOP HERE or scan the QR code on the flyer below.
