Crafton Hills College will be rockin' it at the Annual Gala on Sat., March 28. The Students Rock! Tour will be a fun evening of music, lip synching, and raising money for scholarships and college programs. Over 200 people traditionally attend the gala, supporting the college and the students who will become the workforce of tomorrow. This year's auction will help: prepare first responders by funding firefighting equipment; build a veterans center on campus; support students with textbooks and scholarships; encourage students to transfer to four-year institutions through a special fund to pay for application fees; and feed students with food insecurity at the new Coaches Cupboard food bank. The 2015 CHC Outstanding Alumni award will also be given to an alumnus who exemplifies the dynamic and positive qualities of the Crafton experience. Last year's recipient was alumnus Chief Mike Smith, San Manuel Fire Department. From Bach to Beatles to Bono; Pavarotti to Presley to Paisley; Sinatra to Streisand to Swift… however you roll, we'll have something for you. Come represent your favorite band or artist (t-shirts and costumes encouraged but not required). "It's always fun to see our students, alumni and community friends, have a great time supporting our college," says Cheryl Marshall, president. "It's a surprise to see who will embrace a costume or role, all in the name of fundraising." Sponsorships of all levels are available, as well as advertising in the show program. Tickets are $75 each and VIP passes will be available at the door. The gala begins at 6 pm at the National Orange Show Renaissance Room.
