Though the first day of Spring is still a few days away, Dandridge Elementary School students took advantage of the nice weather on Saturday morning to attend the Spring Fling. The Dandridge Elementary School Parent Teacher Organization and the Modern Woodmen hosted the fun raiser. In addition to activities that included inflatables, cupcake walk and games, as well as refreshments, there was a silent basket auction to allow parents a chance to get in on the excitement. Dandridge Elementary School has several ongoing projects including beautification, a reading room and a hands on gardening project, which are sponsored all, or in part, by the active PTO.  Proceeds raised by the event were generously matched by Modern Woodmen of America up to $2500.
