Alumni and friends of Mount Saint Agnes Academy will be putting on their cowboy hats and boots and head to the school’s Boots and Bubbly fundraiser at the Hamilton Princess and Beach Club.

The gala will take place on April 15 and will have a country western theme.

A spokeswoman for the school said: “We are excited to have three bands that will feature many of our alumni.

“During the cocktail hour we will have the TRS Trio, then during dinner we will have a country western band Silvertones and then the Travellers will finish the evening with lots of dancing.”

The evening will begin with cocktails at 6.30pm and the buffet will open one hour later.

There will also be a silent auction and a raffle drawing.

Tickets are $130 and include one glass of wine and the buffet.

All funds raised during the event will go towards expanding the school’s Early Learning Programme and supporting the increased need for student financial aid.

Tickets can be purchased on the school’s website or by contacting Suzanne DeCouto on 292-4134 ext 1943.
