Springer is holding its annual Magnolia Time celebration on April 29. This year's theme is "Magnolia Time at the Derby." The evening will begin with a silent auction; a live auction, dinner and the drawing of the Grand Raffle winner of $10,000 will follow. Magnolia Time is Springer's biggest special event of the year. Funds generated from Magnolia Time support the financial aid program at the school.
The entire Springer School organization is involved in this event. Trustees, administrators, faculty and friends come together to make it a success. Many parents volunteer many hours to pull it together. Leadership for this year's event is focused on three parents whose children are graduating from Springer this year. Laurie Maguire is co-chair in charge of all the arrangements that make the evening happen, i.e., invitations, catering etc. Nancy Swartzel is heading a large committee charged with gathering all the items/services needed for active bidding during the silent and oral auctions. Dawna Mayerson has formed a team of creative thinkers who will carry out the racing theme.
