Mark your calendars for our year of community events!
Fall Harvest Festival | Wednesday, October 1, 3:00 to 6:30 pm
At our first family festival of the school year, we invite parents, friends, and grandparents to join us! We will have fun, seasonal activities for children, a performance, and a potluck meal.
Lantern Walk | Thursday, November 13 at sunset
This quiet and simple festival is held to celebrate our inner light as the days begin to shorten. We will hear a story, learn a song, and as dusk falls, carry handmade lanterns for a walk through the woods, creating a magical experience for all. Families and friends are invited.
Winter Fair | Friday & Saturday, December 5-6
On the first weekend of December, our school hosts a winter fair with activities for children, performances, storytelling, delicious food, and a fabulous artisan market. Warm your toes and hands around one of the many fires and celebrate the light during the darkest time of the year. Parents help with the different components of the fair. Artisan vendors are welcome to apply.
Day of Giving | Tuesday, March 24
Join us on this special day, to shower our school with support and love. We will call, text, and email our incredible LCWS community to ask for a donation. Each year, we hope every member of our school community will make a gift in whatever capacity is right for your family.
Mayfest | Saturday, May 2
Our Mayfest is a fun-filled day for families and one of our biggest outreach events! Enjoy pony rides, maypole dancing, face painting, great kid-friendly food, and flower crown making. This is a wonderful event to invite your family and friends to experience our school.
Spring Benefit: Family Concert | Thursday, May 14
The Thursday before our Spring Benefit, we invite families to hear the music from our benefit concert. Admission is by donation and supports the Joshua Moore Scholarship Fund.
Grandparents & Special Friends Day | Friday, May 15
We love to host our students’ grandparents and special friends! Typically less than half of our students bring a special friend, so this should not be a point of stress if you don’t have family in town! Please email Lindsay Francescutti at lindsayf@lakechamplainwaldorfschool.org to get your family and friends on our mailing list.
Spring Benefit: Gala Concert & Dinner | Saturday, May 16
The Spring Benefit is our school’s biggest event! It features an impressive musical performance by the school’s adult and student choir and orchestra, delicious food and drinks, and a fabulous, huge auction. Parents are involved in many ways at this event. In addition to attending and enjoying the party, parents sing in the choir, donate goods and services to the auction, serve on committees to collect donations for the auction, decorate, and help with planning and hosting the event. There are many ways to be involved and we welcome your participation!
