I invite everyone to join me at BCD’s annual fundraiser for financial aid. “Dangerous Women: A Cabarevusical” will be held on Saturday evening, April 24th, 2010 at Shakespeare & Company.   This year there will also be a special matinee on Sunday afternoon, April 25th.  BCD’s very own “Dangerous Women” – Pam Rich, Laurie Schiff, Lisa Kantor, along with special guest Debbie Zecher, will be performing.  The event promises to be an evening of raucous good cheer, lots of song, and plenty of sass.  “Dangerous desserts” and cocktails will be provided, and an exciting live auction will also be held.  Tickets go on sale today through Shakespeare & Company.  You can call the Box Office at 413-637-1199 or go online to www.shakespeare.org

BCD hosts one major benefit a year to raise funds for financial aid.  The proceeds from this year’s gatherings will generate the much needed support that we provide to over one-quarter of our students who need some level of financial assistance to help make their BCD education possible.  During these uncertain economic times, we embrace conversations about financial aid with current and prospective families more than ever.  The success of our event this year is essential to our community and the health of the school.

There are other important ways for you to get involved.  Please consider being an Underwriter or Sponsor and/or purchasing an ad for the program.  Invite your friends and family to attend the event.  Volunteer to help before, during, or after the event.  Please contact Maxine Carter-Lome at 413.637.0755, ext. 15, or email her at mlome@berkshirecountryday.org
