PHOTO GALLERY: Stoughton Parents "Party All Night Long"

On Saturday, March 19, Party All Night Long (PANL) hosted a "" to help defray costs for the annual all-night graduation party for the Stoughton High graduating class.

The fundraising event was held at Club Luis de Camoes (76 Porter Street). Upwards of 125 Stoughton parents and residents took part in a night out, without the kids, raising money for a good cause.

Rose Eckler of the PANL committee said that almost $6,000 was raised Saturday night, a significant portion of the estimated $15,000 it costs to run Party All Night Long for the graduates.

Those in attendance enjoyed appetizers, desserts, dancing and socializing. There was also a silent auction, lottery tree and raffle prizes.

Three people won $225 prizes, but the big winners of the night were Roger and Susan Hardy, who came away with the $2,250 grand prize in the cash elimination raffle.

Local band Double Shot provided the entertainment, at no cost to PANL. Club Luis de Camoes donated the use of the function room as well.

Eckler said she wanted to thank the following sponsers:

* Club Luis de Camoes
* The band "Double Shot"
* Inna's Flowers and Balloons
* Smokey Bones
* Subway
* Sons of Italy & Stoughton Babe Ruth League-Mike Sammarco
* The Cupcake Lady-Alice Eppenstein
* Peggy's Sweets-Peggy Buresh

"In addition, thank you to the many businesses that donated prizes for our Silent Auction and to the many people who purchased big raffle tickets, lottery tree tickets
and bid on the silent auction items," Eckler said.

Party All Night Long starts at 11 p.m., Thursday, June 2, following the Stoughton High graduation.
