Why Your Support Matters
Proceeds from the Soirée benefit the Cecilia Rawlins Fund and the Wiley Elementary Foundation—directly supporting our school in areas beyond the PTA’s scope. Help us make a difference! All proceeds from this event and auction are shared 50-50 by the organizations. 

What to Wear

Festive/cocktail attire. The party venue features both indoor space and a tented outdoor grass area, so we discourage spiky high heels.

Parking 

Parking on site is limited, but front door VIP parking is included in several sponsor packages! There is on-street parking when the small lot fills up. We recommend ride sharing services.
