Princess Tea Party raises $6,000 for Northborough Education Foundation

Ariel and Belle joined 100 little princesses for the 5th Annual Mother/Daughter Princess Tea Party hosted by Northborough Education Foundation (NEF) on May 6, 2017, which was held at Algonquin Regional High School. The annual event is one of the biggest fundraisers for NEF and raised $6,000.

Entertainment included performances by two dance teams from event sponsor, Diane Cournoyer Dance Center, and the girls had the opportunity to meet, dance, and sing with special guests Ariel and Belle. Moms and Princesses enjoyed tea and desserts, nail painting, crafts, and were able to take chances on great raffle items.
