This year, we’re transforming the school into a one-of-a-kind SAA experience just for adults. Enjoy an evening of unique, SAA-inspired fun, community connections, and surprises that will show you SAA like you’ve never seen it before!
This is more than just an event—it’s a chance to come together as a community, celebrate our school, and make a meaningful impact on SAA’s future. Along with an exciting silent and live auctions, you’ll enjoy a selection of dishes from thoughtfully curated food stations, delicious desserts, and drinks—all as part of an unforgettable evening in support of our students.
The event is designed as a Snappy Casual evening! Come dressed in your best casual look – feel free to keep it relaxed yet polished, striking the perfect balance of comfort and style for an enjoyable evening.
Your presence matters, and we can’t wait to share this night with you!
