Looking for a fun day out that also benefits a great cause?

The District 88 Foundation invites all parents/guardians, alumni, staff, community members and friends to attend its third annual Gathering at the Grapevine fundraiser on Sept. 19, 2026! The event will take place from 2 to 5 p.m. and will feature a wine tasting, an array of charcuterie and dessert items, live music, raffle items and more. Thank you to our host, DeVine Wine and Cocktail Bar, 339 E. Kenilworth Ave. in Villa Park!
