Night Out for Lookout and Grandparents Day are coming up on March 6.
Night Out for Lookout is an adults-only annual fundraising event held on the mountain every spring. Mark your calendars: tickets go on sale February 11!
This year’s theme is “Saddle up for Lookout,” so get ready to dance the night away in your favorite blue jeans. The event will be held at the Lookout Mountain Golf Club, with live music, dinner, and an auction.
We are especially excited for several new auction items this year, along with a brand new, easier-to-use online auction platform. Stay tuned - we'll begin previewing auction items next week!
Grandparents Day will take place from 1 to 2:30 p.m. on March 6. This is another treasured LMS tradition that allows grandparents or other special family members to visit the school for performances, classroom tours, refreshments, and more.
This year, in lieu of paper invitations, we will be collecting RSVPs from LMS parents via an online form. Please start thinking about which extended family members and/or friends you would like to attend this special event. We'll share the RSVP link starting next week.
