From Juneau Montessori School:

Thank You Juneau for celebrating Montessori Education by supporting the Sixth Annual Hot Salsa Cool Ballroom Event!

We hope you had as much fun at this years' record-breaking event as we did! Thank you to all of our donors who made the evening the success it was! We especially appreciate the business community's generous support of our event and our silent auction. Thank you to the City and Borough of Juneau and the wonderful staff at Centennial Hall. Salsa Borealis and Thunder Mountain Big Band set the ideal tempo for the evening. And finally thanks to all you beautiful dancers who turned out to support children and diverse educational opportunities in our town. We are honored to be partners with you in caring for children in Juneau!

The community's support of our Hot Salsa Cool Ballroom fundraiser is greatly appreciated by teachers and parents alike.

See you next year!
