“The Encore” Second Polar Bear Gala raises over $60,000 for North High Activities
March 27, 2017
On Saturday March 25, 2017 staff, alumni and the North High community gathered for “The Encore” located at the Downtown Marriott. The second annual Polar Bear Gala had a series of items up for auction such as sports treasures, art pieces and tickets to places like an Iowa Cubs game. During the event, students involved in choir, jazz band and orchestra performed to the many people during the silent auction and dinner time. The North High ROTC also presented the United States flag while the choir sang the national anthem. The night was filled with laughs and a sense of community that could never be replaced. All of this money raised was in efforts to make North High activities the best for students. That night the gala raised over $60,000. With the helping hands of students who sold raffle tickets, the night was a major success.
