ROAR stands for "raising our allocation resources." It is an annual celebration of the Lakeside community and the primary fundraiser of the Parents and Guardians Association. We are pleased to offer two options to participate in ROAR:

• In-person at the Hyatt Regency in Seattle, 6-9:30 p.m. Live onstage will be auctioneer and Lakeside alum Fred Northup Jr. '91 joined by emcee and current Lakeside parent Angela Poe Russell. Note: This is an adults-only event, and all guests must be fully vaccinated or have a medical or religious exemption. Registration is closed for the event.
• Virtual livestream (free), 7:15-8:45 p.m.

In addition, everyone can participate in the online auction which opens on Nov. 15 at 12:01 a.m. and closes on Nov. 20 at 7 p.m. All silent items, buy-in parties, and wine are only available online this year. More information will be emailed to parents and guardians by Nov. 9 on how to bid.

Event proceeds support a variety of areas including classroom enrichment, faculty and staff development, and financial aid. ROAR builds connections within our community while raising funds that support all Lakeside students, faculty, and staff.

Thank you in advance for your support of ROAR and we look forward to seeing you on Nov. 20!

Juiling Edmonds, Erica Moon, and Jen Yeung
