Walpole Computer Foundation Hosts
It's First Annual Gala

Walpole, Mass.—When was the last time you were invited to go out to a glamorous evening of dinner and dancing surrounded by friends in a fabulous venue? Well, consider this your invitation. The Walpole Computer Foundation (WCF) has organized its first annual Gala to be held at Lake Pearl Luciano’s in Wrentham on Saturday, October 16.

The WCF Gala will feature a gourmet dinner and DJ with the finest selection of dance music. This formal event (black-tie optional) will also include a live and silent auction, and lots of lively conversation and fun.

“We wanted to organize an event that would be memorable, while supporting a good cause,” said Chairman Carl Tempesta. “And since there are so few Galas to attend and chances to wear formal attire, we thought that this would be an enjoyable way to raise money to ensure our public schools have the advanced technology and computer education they need.”

Proceeds for this event will go towards the Walpole Computer Foundation (WCF), an all-volunteer, nonprofit corporation founded in 1992 with a goal of improving the availability of up-to-date computer technology for the students and teachers of the Walpole public schools. The WCF’s primary mission is to raise money to supplement the school system’s annual technology budget. It works in close partnership with the Walpole Public Schools to accomplish both short and long-term technology goals.

Tickets for this Gala are $75.00 per person. Different precious stone sponsorships are also available for this first annual Gala ranging from the Diamond sponsorship at $5,000, Emerald at $2,500 and Sapphire $1,000, each providing different levels of benefits. Table sponsors will also be offered ranging from $100-250, depending on the location of the table to the dance floor. If you, or your company, are interested in supporting this worthy cause with a sponsorship, please call Carl Tempesta at (508) 668-8044.

The Walpole Computer Foundation cordially invites Walpole residents and their friends and family to attend this special evening out. Please mark your calendars for October 16 and join us for an unforgettable social evening that will celebrate the advancement of technology and education in our schools, while dancing the night away. For tickets or more information, please call Carl Tempesta at (508) 668-8044.

A splendid time is guaranteed!
