Ewen-Trout Creek Christmas Celebration

EWEN - TROUT CREEK -The Christmas Concert Season concluded Friday evening at the Ewen - Trout Creek School.

Friends and family gathered in an evening of fun and entertainment in a way we've come to expect at this school district. While E-TC is a small school district it is a great big family in much the same way as Watersmeet and Wakefield-Marenisco.
 
The evening was a wonderful combination of music and food.

As part of their fundraising efforts, the evening began with a well attended dinner, that had pre-sold 100 dinners for the evening. Many more friends and supporters showed up for the evening and creating a shortage of food.

The dinners were made and served by the students and faculty volunteers.
As usual at ETC events there were several raffles another successful fundraiser for the district.
The entertainment began with an exceptionally talented student, Daniel Gravyvold playing several Christmas songs. Daniel was followed by Sam Vollmer reciting the Christmas Story.
