Co-chair Emily Dunn enjoys the fall festival with MBE students Adah Schilleci, Maddie Still, Lauren Clark, Mae Helen Toranto, Carolyn Dunn and Mary Carleton Baynes.
Mountain Brook Elementary held its first annual fall festival in November. The event boasted bouncy houses for the students, a candy walk, live music by the Old Smugglers, self-portraits by students that were offered for sale, and a silent auction.
The auction baskets were filled with prizes including a weekend at the Grand Bohemian, skybox tickets to an Alabama football game, fabulous local gift certificates, Ripstik and electric scooter, and a spring break trip to the Gulf Coast, just to name a few.
The evening concluded with pizza for all and a showing of “Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory” on the big screen.
Chairs Emily Dunn and Melanie Toronto worked tirelessly to ensure the event was a success. The funds raised will be allocated to the school’s new playground.
