1-2 people still needed to run the Primary Election Day Bake Sale on Mar 1. We will be forced to cancel the bake sale if we do not have any volunteers to run this event.

There should be a large turn out for the election so is a great opportunity to raise $$ for Bigelow.  We have everything set up  and ready to go.  Tasks include organizing the bake sale, overseeing the volunteers and setting up.  We do all the advertising for you.  Please contact us at bigelowbulldog@gmail.com if you are interested.

Mark your calendars now for THE BIGELOW SPEAKEASY:  Saturday, May 14th at the Commander’s Mansion in Watertown.  

A fun night with great food, a silent auction, music, lots of Bigelow parents and faculty and much more!! Last year’s event was a great success and this year’s promises to be even more fun.  We hope you will be able to join us.
