The University City High School Grad Nite Committee is busy preparing for Grad Nite to be held in the high school gymnasium on June 16. This all-night alcohol- and drug-free event is designed to keep our graduating seniors and the community safe on a night that is potentially dangerous for them. This also creates a lifelong memorable experience for our 435 graduates.
This huge undertaking of transforming the school gymnasium into a Roman coliseum is only possible with the effort of many people from the community. We provide many entertaining activities, food and prizes throughout the entire night. As you can imagine, the cost for such an event is significant.
We are a nonprofit organization that looks to the community for donations of money, food, prizes (gift cards or specialty items) and volunteer time. Volunteers are needed during the set-up on June 12 and 13, from 5 to 9 p.m., and all day Saturday, June 14 from 8:30 a.m., and take-down on Saturday, June 21 from 8:30 a.m. Even one hour of your time would be gratefully appreciated.
Your kind donations may be mailed to UCHS Grad Nite at 6949 Genesee Ave., San Diego, CA 92122. Donations of food may be dropped off at the school office or in the gymnasium. For questions, call (858) 273-1033 or e-mail [email protected].
