Jokers and Jazz Bash 2022
Each April, DSSW holds its annual Bash, celebrating community and leadership, while raising dollars for its programs and services. This year’s event returns to an in-person event, with a nod to the roaring 20’s! The jazz band will set the vibe, along with a fun silent auction, a catered meal from Corporate Caterers, and an hour of comedy from national comedian, Josh Sneed.
Proceeds remain local and support upcoming programs, including Summer of Discovery, and the Mobile Morning Truck initiative.
