Support education your way

Bend-La Pine Education Foundation with WayPoint by BBC presents, "Tiki Week." WayPoint's party will be on Friday, 9/18 with a DJ on site and potentially a couple of summer themed vendors, but the specialty drinks will be flowing the 15th - 22nd. Price: Free - Percentage of specialty drink proceeds go to the Education Foundation.

Kendall Mercedes is bringing their A-game — and a super-fast Derby car — to race for the gold and support the Bend-La Pine Education Foundation! Voting for your favorite car starts at 2 PM, and racing starts at 3 PM. Come cheer them on and help us bring home the gold!

Join us for an evening of friendly competition, tasty food, signature drinks, a raffle with amazing prizes and community support! This year marks our 18th annual event. Teams of 3, sponsored by local businesses, will compete testing their brain power and random trivia knowledge. Throw in a costume and best team name contest and you have a guaranteed good time about to happen. Who will bring home the trophy this year? Proceeds from the event go to support our Classroom Enrichment Program (classroom grants) which benefits the 17,000+ students throughout Bend, La Pine and Sunriver who attend the 33 schools in our school . These grants bring innovative educator-led, hands on projects to our students that take learning to the next level. The funding gap is huge and we need support from community partners like you to help bridge that gap.
