Perfect Evening For Jam Fest Fun

With the first few weeks of the school year behind us, Friday, September 19 was the perfect evening to chill-out with McDonogh friends and families at the back-to-school Jam Fest. More than 600 people spread out their blankets and chairs on the circle in front of the Edward St. John Student Center for the annual party which featured the sounds of Retrospect, a band including Upper School Director of Instrumental Music Don New and a guest appearance from riding teacher Holly Gizzi. In addition to the live music and picnic supper, students had a blast playing on the Lower School playground, joining in an impromptu football game, having their faces painted, hula-hooping, and taking turns on the bouncy super slide.  Get a taste of the Jam Fest fun here.
