The Lincoln Park Cooperative Preschool's 2014 Auction was a stunning success!  

A huge Thank You to the Feedback Lounge and all of the folks who came out to support the Co-op last night.  A round of applause for the Auction Committee volunteers who organized the event, the volunteers who helped the day of, our dedicated teachers and their priceless contributions, the parents who put together the incredible class projects, and everyone that furnished our fabulous auction items (teachers, parents, grandparents).  A special nod of appreciation to the individuals and businesses that gave to our auction; we cannot thank you enough for your generous donations. 

This community fundraising effort has ensured the prosperity of a school that is important for  . . . the community!
