Cornerstone School<br />
Monte Carlo Night<br />
Cornerstone Booster Club hosted its 19th annual<br />
Monte Carlo Night at the Harlyne J. Norris Pavillion.<br />
The theme was A Midwinter Night’s Dream.<br />
Parents, friends and business community members<br />
celebrated and raised funds to benefit the children<br />
of Cornerstone Elementary School. Chairwomen<br />
Gail Dardashti, Janet Feigle, Karen Yamamoto and<br />
numerous volunteers transformed The Pavilion into<br />
a winter wonderland. The entrance was sparkling.<br />
Classically trained parent volunteers set an elegant<br />
tone with live string music. Snow flurries and an<br />
open sleigh photo booth set a playful mood. The ballroom<br />
offered delicious small plates, games of chance<br />
and one-of-a-kind silent auction items. Cornerstone’s<br />
cultural immersion parent team, representing the<br />
Year of Scandinavia, dazzled the audience with a lip<br />
sync performance of Abba’s Waterloo. Principal Jeff<br />
Keeney was unrecognizable as the lead guitarist;<br />
demonstrating, once again, his unwavering support<br />
of Cornerstone. Auctioneer extraordinaire, Dennis<br />
Rizza, inspired fierce competition among friends and<br />
significantly raised bids on auction items. The event<br />
ended with a full dance floor. PTA/Parent Board President<br />
Sandra Wang declared the evening a huge success.<br />
