A Night Circus… Razzle Dazzle 2012

Saturday, May 5, 2012, 5:30pm
Community Park in Louisville

Powered by ReadySetAuction® Online Auction Software

The annual Razzle Dazzle is the major fundraiser for our organization. We rely on this event to raise as much as half of our needs for our student and teachers in the Boulder Valley School District. In addition to having a critical impact on the needs of our community, this event has become a premier event in Boulder County – a veritable gathering of “who’s who” of countywide community members, leaders, influencers, and supporters of public education.

Each year, since its inception, the Razzle Dazzle has taken on a theme that brings food, music, and fun to a crowd limited to the number of people that can fit under Colorado’s largest outdoor tent for 500 people!
