This year’s theme is “Give to Grow” in memoriam of Mitch Gast, Foundation President who passed away unexpectedly this past January. The Anoka-Ramsey Community College Foundation’s “Prairie Home Delights” helps provide students with scholarships, faculty with grants to enhance the classroom experience, and new equipment for the college.

Students also partake in the event through live music, artwork and volunteering. Guests will have the opportunity to enjoy the Mississippi River along with a perfect view of the sunset from the college’s Riverview Café. Enjoy the ambiance of the evening while benefiting local students through bidding on a variety of silent auction items throughout the event.
