Oakdale Elementary PTO to Hold School Fundraiser

With the sponsorship of the folks from the Dedham Savings Bank, the Oakdale PTO has secured the services of Steve Wronker, for one night only, to perform right here in Dedham!

 

Each year, thanks to the efforts of PTO organizations around town, our schools and our teachers are able to fund arts and enrichment programs and afford extracurricular  activities for our students.

Without the PTO's help, the cost of having assemblies in school or paying for buses for field trips would be impossible.

This year, for the first time, Oakdale Elementary School PTO President Kim Lynch, and parent volunteer Leslie Coughlin, thought of a wonderful way, to not only raise money for the school, but to let the parents enjoy themselves while doing it. 

The pair had recently heard about Steve Wronker's “Funny Business” Shows. Steve is one of the more seasoned performers on stage today, and has been entertaining audiences around New England since 1974. His shows are best known for their family-friendly fun.

Since 1987, Steve Wronker has hosted a one of a kind comedy-hypnosis show, where the audience is the star. Wronker's client list is endless, and includes affairs for Analog Devices, Barnes and Noble, Reebok, Dunkin Donuts and many schools across the states.
