CountryDate CountryDate 2023
On March 4, the Country Day community gathered at the Little Miami Brewing Company Event Center for our annual gala, CountryDate. Daphne Jurgensen (wife of Jason Jurgensen ’95, and parent of Chloe ’29, Claire ’29, and JR ’30) chaired a casino-themed evening celebrating friendship and community. With the chatter and laughter of more than 250 guests, dancing, fun at the gaming tables, s’mores around the firepits, and more, it was an incredible party for us all to enjoy! In addition to those present, many more participated through sponsorships and an online auction of Country Day Classics. This year, event sponsorship was the most significant fundraising component of CountryDate with a great show of support from parents, alumni, grandparents, and local businesses. Combined with Jackpot donations, monies raised from games of chance, and CountryDay Classics, the event raised over $120,000 for the school’s Country Day Fund, taking us a step closer to our target of $1.0 million in annual fundraising for the school year. On behalf of the students and faculty, our heartfelt appreciation to all who contributed to the evening’s success.
