The festival will be held on Friday, June 13 from 6 to 9 p.m. at Maple Place
School in the borough.
Come join the fun! This year’s attractions include a new WATER WAR
competition! Shore Regional Superintendent Thomas Farrell has challenged Wolf
Hill Principal Melanie Lipinski, and Maple Place Principal Matt Howell, to see
who gets dunked the most! You’ll finally have the chance to show support of your favorite school Administrator. Let’s
see which one can raise the most money!
More of this year's attractions will include an encore performance of the
Variety Show put on by the incredibly talented Wolf Hill students. This is a truly
spectacular show that you don’t want to miss!
