The Little City roars into the ’20s with a gala

It’s going to be the bee’s knees! 

Mark your calendars for a roaring night of dance, drink, food, bag raffles and “best dressed” prizes during The Little City Gala on Saturday, Nov. 5, from 8-11 p.m.

The Little City Gala is a fundraiser put on by the Vergennes Union Elementary School Community Group. The Gala will be held at the Vergennes Opera House and the evening will feature a DJ, cash bar, charcuterie board and snack table with various foods donated by local restaurants and businesses. There will be a bag raffle with great packages such as an overnight stay with breakfast at Basin Harbor and a one-year family membership to Shelburne Farms. The crowning of the “Little City Royals” will go to two attendees voted as the “roaring ’20s best dressed.” The winners will each receive a $100 gift card to a much loved local restaurant.

All proceeds from Gala and raffle ticket sales will directly support VUESCG’s mission: “to provide enrichment and community building activities for VUES.” Money raised will support school activities like: field trips, the implementation of Four Winds nature based programming, a book for each student at the Book Fair, family fun events, and teacher appreciation activities.

Tickets cost $30, with donations accepted, at eventbrite.com (search “Little City Gala”).
