On May 4, Ron Nunn Parents Club held the 2012 Spring Gala fundraising event Denim & Diamonds. This event raised more than $9,000 in funds for Ron Nunn Elementary School. On behalf of Ron Nunn Parents Club and Ron Nunn Elementary School teachers and students, I would like to thank all of the parents, teachers and volunteers who supported our 2012 Spring Gala.

The following individuals and businesses helped ensure the success of our Spring Gala. Without their hard work and support, we would not have had such a positive event. Thank you, Mark Valone, and all of the staff at Club Los Meganos at Trilogy for a beautifully organized event and a wonderful dining experience.
