Spring Fling is almost here, and we can’t wait! If you have tickets already, here’s some logistical information we thought you’d like to know before you arrive. (If you still need to grab a ticket before they sell out, click here.)

Where?
Lake Forest Park Civic Club
17301 Beach Dr NE, Lake Forest Park, WA 98155

The Civic Club has free parking for approximately 40 vehicles. Once that’s filled, there are additional spaces across Bothell Way.

What Should I Wear?
Dress for a good time! Despite our lovely PNW weather not getting the memo, we’re going for a Spring cocktail party theme – think cocktail or floral dresses, slacks, and your best dancing shoes. It’s most important to us that everyone has a good time, so if cocktail dresses aren’t for you, then come in your favorite party attire.

Do I need to bring anything?
This is a 21+ event with alcohol available for purchase, and we will be checking photo ID. Please be sure to have it with you.

When?
Check-in begins at 6pm, and the evening will wrap up around 9pm.

What’s a Raise the Paddle?
It’s a way for participants to help support all the amazing Hazel Wolf K-8 programs the PTSA funds. During this part of the evening, we’ll ask you to lift your bid card (your “paddle”, which you’ll receive during check-in) and pledge a donation amount that makes sense for you. It’s that simple.

We’ll start with a dollar amount and ask for anyone who’s willing to donate at that amount to raise their bid card, and to hold that card in the air until we’ve recorded everyone’s bid number. And remember – you can raise your paddle more than once!

What’s a Dessert Dash?
A Dessert Dash is an auction – for dessert! It’s a fun way to have our cake while raising money for the school. There’ll be a display of delicious donated desserts, but… we’re asking attendees to make a donation in order to enjoy them!

Guests at each table pool their donations to bid on one of the desserts – each table will be given a Dessert Dash Bid Sheet, for you to list your contribution. Once all the bid sheets have been collected, we’ll announce the highest table bid, and that table gets to pick their favorite dessert first – and so on, until every table has chosen a dessert. It goes fast (hence “Dash”), so it’s best to pick a runner for your table, and agree on your top choices ahead of time!

I have dietary restrictions. Will there be options for me?
Our appetizers will include vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, and dairy-free options. The bánh mì sandwiches will be available in meat, vegetarian, and gluten-free (no bun) variations. For the Dessert Dash, allergens such as nuts, dairy, soy, gluten will be listed on the desserts.

Any other questions?
Please email fundraising@hazelwolfk8.org and we’ll do our best to help!

We look forward to seeing you on Saturday, March 2nd, for what promises to be a fantastic in-person FUNdraiser to benefit our wonderful school!
