Annual Green Gala

Held on Willow’s campus, the Green Gala celebration features cocktails, dinner, dancing, as well as live and silent auctions. The auctions offer a wide range of items, from $20 gift certificates to $15,000 vacations, making it possible for everyone to enjoy themselves as they find a way to support Willow. Guests 21+ are welcome, and we have been elated to have alumni join us for the past several years.

Since 2007, Assistant to the Head of School, Gayle DiGioacchino, has demonstrated an unflagging commitment to our Willow community. With a smile, patience, and meticulous attention to detail, Gayle has always ensured that every ‘i’ was dotted and ‘t’ was crossed so that students, parents, faculty and staff would experience the very best of Willow on a daily basis.

As Gayle prepares to retire this summer, we are grateful to keep her in our community as her granddaughters begin their own Willow chapters. Gayle has even brought her talented daughter Julie, now on the Middle School staff, into the Willow fold.

While Gayle may not be going far, it is safe to say she will be missed, and we look forward to celebrating the care, service, and leadership she has provided to our community for the past 18 years! Please join us in what promises to be a fittingly marvelous celebration this spring.
