The Lester Prairie Foundation for Education hosts the Bulldog Bash every spring. At the Bulldog Bash we host a silent and live auction. This even is our primary fundraiser and raises over $25,000 for our schools with over 300 community members in attendance. These funds are then distributed to our teachers in the form of $500 grants to use in their classrooms. These grants have helped repair band instruments, purchased phy equipment, updated technology and paid for subscriptions for teachers to use with their students. Other funds have also been used to purchase band instruments, industrial tech equipment, 3D printers, chromebooks and SmartBoards.
