Columbia Cottage Sponsors Fundraiser for Mountain Brook High School Band Students

April 1, 2010 - PRLog -- BIRMINGHAM – Columbia Cottage Assisted living showed their support to the Mountain Brook High School band by hosting a fundraiser for the students.  Over the past several weeks, MBHS band students sold tickets for a plate dinner to friends and family members.  Meal pick-up was at the Cottage on Crosshaven Drive at Overton Road on Thursday, March 25th. The Cottage donated 100% of ticket sales to the band students – over $1250!

This year’s plate dinner consisted of herb baked chicken, seasoned potatoes, green beans, a dinner roll, and Columbia Cottage’s famous giant chocolate chip cookie!  “The fundraiser was a success again this year.  The students sold over 150 tickets” said Janet Wallace, Managing Director at Columbia Cottage.  “It was so wonderful to see the community come together in support of the Mountain Brook High School band, and I know all the Residents here at the Cottage really enjoyed spending time with the students.”

Staff at Columbia Cottage cooked and prepared all the meals.  Students and parents were at the Cottage the day before the meal pick up to help put labels on boxes and package the cookies.  A group of band students played soft jazz at the Cottage during meal pick up to entertain Residents and visitors.
