Silent auction
Chelsea Heights Elementary held a silent auction at Gabe’s By the Park on April 13. The event, which organizers hope will become an annual event, had tremendous attendance from current families, past families and neighborhood families. The school thanks all the businesses, families and staff members who donated to the auction. The auction raised more than $6,000, which will be used for a new playground that will be constructed May 1 and 2 at the school. (See the story on the playground on page 16.) A special thanks to Gabe’s By the Park for hosting this event.
