Hear that sound? It's Jamboree season again!

Folks who live near BF or GW may be hearing the telltale sound of tapping feet...it's Jamboree time again! It's the time of year when over 100 Ridgewood High School parents dance, show off their talent (some), make fools of themselves (others) and give remarkably of themselves (everyone) for the benefit of our students.

The shows are February 9th-12th at Ben Franklin Middle School Auditorium.

This is Jamboree's 65th year, and the theme is "That's Life"

All proceeds from Jamboree go to the Jamboree Scholarship program. The scholarships are distributed in the spring to deserving RHS students.

Tickets for reserved seats are available online at the Jamboree website (click here) or tickets may be available at the door. Parking is a challenge, so carpool to the shows!

(And yes, the Board of Ed will again have a small cameo in the performance...as further enticement to get you to come haha. That's always good for a laugh...or an eye-roll.)
