On behalf of the Brunswick Acres School community, we would like to extend our sincere appreciation to everyone who supported our Harlem Wizards fund-raiser.
A special thanks to: Elaine McGrath, Karen Bertucci, Bob Cardaneo, Mike Murphy, Vince from Chartwells and the entire South Brunswick High School staff for being so patient, supportive and accommodating. From the planning, to the setting up, to the breaking down after, you were there for us and we truly appreciate your efforts.

Your efforts, coupled with our generous community, enabled us to raise $8,700 which will be used to equip our new classrooms with sound field systems. Your hard work and dedication is to be applauded.
