LYME-OLD LYME — The Lyme-Old Lyme High School (LOLHS) Safe Grad Committee is holding an online auction starting today, March 17, and running through TONIGHT, March 21, at 11:59 p.m. EDT, to raise funds for the Class of 2021’s Safe Grad Night.

A great selection of prizes has been gathered, which it will be possible to view online when the site opens at 8 a.m. today.

Hosting an all-night “Safe Graduation Party” for the senior class is a long-standing tradition at LOLHS. The goal is to provide a safe, substance-free party in a “secret location” where students have the opportunity to share food, music, entertainment, and memories with their classmates.

For as long as these parties have been provided for LOLHS seniors, the Lyme-Old Lyme community has enjoyed trouble-free graduation nights.

While the party is hosted entirely by parents of seniors, it takes a community effort to help the students remain safe and supervised while celebrating the wonderful milestone of their high school graduation.

Funding for the party comes entirely from fundraisers, donations from local businesses and organizations, and individual contributions.

The online auction will go live at 8 a.m. on March 17, and ends at 11:59 p.m. on March 21, at www.lolsgp.betterworld.org
