The Pirate Fine Arts Boosters recently made its fall program awards in the amount of $10,398.39. In addition, PFAB awarded funds to support the Crookston High School auditorium in the amount of $6,100. This past summer PFAB awarded $1900 in scholarship funds for four students to attend arts related camps.
The Pirate Fine Arts Boosters work is made possible through the generous donations of citizens of Crookston and the surrounding area who support the arts programs in our public schools. PFAB also received a generous donation from the estate of June Shaver. Because of these donations our students and teachers are able to experience a quality of arts programming that would not otherwise be possible.
Members of the Board include Elaine Metzger, Amy Ellingson, Alvern Wentzel, Phyllis Hagen, Belinda Fjeld. Dale Knotek, Beth Carlson, Greg Garmen, Liz Thompson and Jim Kent.
Donations may be sent to PO Box 743, Crookston, MN 56716. All donations are tax exempt.
