In fact, achievement in music education has been established as being a strong causal factor in math and reading excellence amongst students. The March 26 Campolindo High School Jazz Dinner Dance at Creekside Commons in Lafayette raises funds to support the wonderful jazz and instrumental music programs at Campolindo High School in Moraga.
The event will feature Campolindo's Music Director Johnny Johnson, the Campolindo Jazz Band, and over 10 combos, which will play an eclectic mix of jazz and big band music. Local Lamorinda businesses such as TuTu's of Lafayette Fiesta Square or Outdoor Supply Hardware in Moraga reach approximately 150 dinner guest families by sponsoring donated items that are assembled in creative baskets and raffled to generate proceeds for the music program. This year the Jazz Dinner Dance Committee is targeting a Gourmet Herb Garden Kit, Night Out in Fiesta Square, Picnic Basket for Two Wine and Cheese Sampler, and other concepts. Between appetizers, dinner, and dancing, winning raffle numbers are drawn throughout the evening for the lucky number holders to select a basket of their choice to take home.
All are welcome for this evening of dining and dancing. Tickets can be purchased online at
