The Town Crush

The Town Crush (formerly known as the Wine Tasting,
Dinner and Auction) raises funds for the tuition
assistance and faculty enrichment programs
at the School. Held at the conclusion of the wine
“crush” season, this event kicks off the holiday
season in the area and is always a “sold out” event.

This year's event was chaired by Penny and Jim Coulter and was held on Thursday, November 13, 2008 at Bimbo's 365 Club.
