Welcome!

March 2012
Dear Bay Community and Friends,
Welcome to Bay Splash 2012 The Big Easy! a festive and friendly celebration of our
distinctive school community.
As we proudly celebrate our 7th annual Bay Splash event, and our 5th graduating class, I
continue to marvel at the resourcefulness and willingness of our community to contribute
so unselfishly to our success. Proceeds from The Big Easy will augment our academic
programs and sustain broad access to a Bay School education through the Tuition
Assistance program. Thanks to you, Bay Splash 2012 will directly benefit every student
in the school.
At the Bay School, we strive to create a place where young people can discover their
greatest instincts and feel free to explore new ideas in new ways. Not surprisingly, we’ll
be exploring some new features and opportunities at Bay Splash 2012 as well. The Splash
Raffle is a big one, because every raffle ticket has equal odds of being the lucky one that
gets drawn. And, if the bartenders mixing up your Hurricane look familiar, it’s because
they are parents of Bay’s freshman class.
What’s better than finding the baby in the King Cake?
Holding a winning ticket in the Splash Raffle!
Purchase a raffle ticket – or ten – and specify how you want to take your chances between
our two spectacular prize drawings. (Ticket holder need not be present at drawing to win.)
Raffle tickets may be purchased at Baysplash.org through 12:00 noon on March 31st or
in person until 8:15 PM at Bay Splash 2012.
Pricing is as follows:
$75: one ticket
$210: three tickets
$650: 10 tickets
$1500: 25 tickets
Our extraordinary team of Splash leaders and volunteers has worked long and hard to
produce this important event. Please join me in acknowledging their dedication and
unselfish work on our behalf.
So, relax and stroll through New Orleans. Enjoy and bid high and often on the many fun
and unique offerings in the Splash silent auction. Take a chance and buy a raffle ticket,
or two. Give with all your heart during our Fund-a-Need. And most importantly, revel in
the music and regional cuisine of The Big Easy with old and new friends — all under the
twilight canopy at the Bay School.
I’ll see you there!

When the Saints Go Marching In
We are trav’ling in the footsteps
Oh, when the trumpet sounds its call
Of those who’ve gone before,
Oh, when the trumpet sounds its call
And we’ll all be reunited,
Lord, how I want to be in that number
On a new and sunlit shore,
When the trumpet sounds its call
Oh, when the saints go marching in
Some say this world of trouble,
Oh, when the saints go marching in
Is the only one we need,
Lord, how I want to be in that number
But I’m waiting for that morning,
When the saints go marching in
When the new world is revealed.
And when the sun refuse to shine
Oh When the new world is revealed
And when the sun refuse to shine
Oh When the new world is revealed
Lord, how I want to be in that number
Lord, how I want to be in that number
When the sun refuse to shine
When the new world is revealed
And when the moon turns red with blood
Oh, when the saints go marching in
And when the moon turns red with blood
Oh, when the saints go marching in
Lord, how I want to be in that number
Lord, how I want to be in that number
When the moon turns red with blood
When the saints go marching in
