Totally Tennyson 5, supporting Edison!

NW Denver’s 5th annual Totally Tennyson returns to Tennyson Street on April 25th from 4-10. Featuring a variety of destinations, this ‘70s, ‘80s, ‘90s themed restaurant, bar and retail street crawl features a ‘taste’ of what Tennyson has to offer from W. 35th to 46th Avenues. Tickets to this unique experience are $25 with 100% of ticket sales going directly to 15 participating schools. Purchasing a ticket through Edison’s unique ticketing link will ensure we get that money to spend immediately!

Last year we raised over $4,000 from ticket sales, plus a grant from Invest Together. This money was spent on providing Field Trip transportation, Enrichment Day, Math Night supplies, and other programs to promote parent and student engagement.

You can purchase tickets 24-7 from the above link, or look for our school reps on the playground in the coming weeks. This year, you can pick up your ticket in advance from us to beat the will call lines, or if you don’t want to worry about misplacing them, e-tickets are available. Another fundraising aspect that’s new this year is the introduction on the Little Black Deal Book, introductory pricing of $10, valid for over 20 one-time use deals at Tennyson-street locations: deals good for Buy One Get One Free, $5 off $25 puchase, or $10 off $100 purchase. For more details, check out http://www.totallytennyson.com/little-black-deal-book We’ll have those later this month, too. 100% of that money will stay at Edison, too!

Your ticket also gets you inside the hottest afterparty at the Oriental Theater with a chance to win cash costume prizes and then on to see the headlining act, 6 Million Dollar Band, Denver’s premier 80’s cover band!? The Dirty Femmes (Violent Femmes cover band), Gin Doctors (90s cover band), Emilio y Emilio and other band will be performing, and there will be other entertainment options too, including a Lebowski Social Hour at Elitch Lanes, not to mention tastes from Tennyson’s new hot and neighborhood-favorite restaurants. TOTALLY AWESOME!

Begun in 2010 as a fun street party/school fundraiser, TT has raised over $90,000 for 15 local schools with over 2000 people in attendance in last year and expects to raise another $50,000 for 15 this year. This multi-school fundraising event is proud to partner with the Denver Public Schools Foundation as our fiscal partner, a local non profit organization that works with schools, tracks projects, helps schools forecast and plan their projects and funding needs by acting as liaison between the schools of Northwest Denver and the community opportunities and resources that can help address the needs and aspirations of each school.
