Have you heard?\u00a0 Big Night Out is the APA fundraising event of the season!\u00a0 It’s an adult’s only evening where the community meets to reconnect, enjoy delicious food, dance and have tons of fun!\u00a0 Big Night Out will actually be a Big Night Out as we are moving out of the gym and into 6 Degrees<\/a><\/strong> – an upscale club at 2335 Yonge Street<\/strong>, north of Eglinton. And, as always – it promises to be a shopping extravaganza!<\/p>\n

Local businesses, Allenby parents and Allenby teachers have donated over $30,000 to make this year’s Big Night Out a success.\u00a0 Now it’s your turn to show your support for our school and\u00a0 our children.\u00a0 Buy your tickets, take a volunteer shift and get ready for some serious deals and lots of fun!<\/p>\n

We hope to see you on November 7th at Big Night Out 2013!<\/p>\n
