Here's something that sounds like fun -

Our 8th grade class is hosting a Spaghetti Dinner and Silent Auction on Friday, Feb. 18 from 5-7:30 PM in the school cafeteria. There will be spaghetti, meat and veggie sauce, salad, garlic bread and drinks for $8 a plate.

Money raised will go towards the 8th grade class trip to Washington DC. As our teacher Peter Stratman explained, many schools dropped this kind of trip from their activities long ago due to budget cuts. Cabot is one of the few places left where the community is strong enough to raise all the funds for a trip of this size outside the regular school budget.

Head on down to the guy on Friday night and have a great spaghetti dinner, and join the fun of the Silent Auction. It's a good place to be on what may be a cold Friday night, and it's a good cause. Parents and kids work hard to make these trips happen.
