Welcome to Blue Bash 2021! Thank you for your support of La Jolla Country Day School. We are grateful for your commitment and generosity during this challenging year. You are here this evening because you care deeply about our community. Thank you to the helping hands and hearts that made this event possible. Together, our sponsors, board of trustees, parent community and staff have created this event to make a difference on the development of the children we love. We are fortunate to have sponsors who believe in the impact we make on the future of children and are excited about the vision of La Jolla Country Day School. We appreciate the Blue Bash steering committee, led by event co-chairs Angie DeJarnette and Jenna Stein. The dedication of this team and the devotion they have shown through their boundless efforts to produce a meaningful Blue Bash give us all confidence about the future of our school. We extend our gratitude to our remarkable faculty and students who open their minds and hearts every day to learn and grow. Without the commitment and competency of our faculty and staff, LJCDS would not be the thriving community it is today. Working with our educators and your children is a privilege, and I am grateful to have the opportunity. Thank you for being here to ensure that our school and students have a brighter future. Enjoy!
