Dear Manhasset Families,

Sprinkle on your pixie dust, polish up your pearls, and join us for a little Neverland magic at our annual SCA Luncheon on Wednesday, October 7th — one of the biggest fundraisers of our year!

Tickets are on sale now- they sold out last year so don’t wait too long!

Grab yours at https://sca-fall-luncheon-2026.cheddarup.com or scan the QR code on the invitation.

We depend on donations of all kinds to make this event a success — no gift is too big or too small! If you have an item, service, or experience you'd like to donate, please reach out to us at luncheon@manhassetsca.org.

Your generosity funds the magic behind the scenes all year long — curriculum-related enrichment programs, Saturday Series, Family Theater, recreational programs, student grants, book fairs, and so much more. Please donate generously and help us keep the pixie dust flowing!

This year's theme, Pixie Dust and Pearls, will come to life with a special performance from our high school cast of Finding Neverland — a showstopping treat you won't want to miss.

We'll also have a treasure trove of raffle and silent auction items, including hockey tickets, gift cards to local businesses, boat trips, and more.

We can't wait to see you there!

With love and a little fairy dust,

Your Manhasset SCA Luncheon Committee
