Join us for a fun-filled evening - all while we celebrate getting together and raising funds for HCES. We will have a live auction, raffle draw, and a paddle raise (for the Ron Brown playground)

Masks are optional for the event, and attendees are encouraged to self-test prior to the event (and not attend if sick). For the comfort and safety of our guests and staff, we will require proof of a negative antigen test taken on the day of the event. Rapid antigen tests will be available onsite as well. 

 

It's been 3 years since the Annual Benefit was held in-person, and the PTA is very excited to celebrate this event with the HCES Community. In the spirit of celebrating inclusiveness and coming together, we have set aside a number of tickets for folks who really want to attend but can only commit to a lower financial commitment. Email us at benefit@hcespta.org for assistance in this regard.
