Best Buddies will be holding a Fish Fry/Chicken Finger Dinner on Friday March 6th!
This fundraiser will help pay for events that help foster friendship and to help pay for a small group of students to go Indianapolis this summer to learn about how to be a Buddy and get more students involved!
Food will be served from 3 p.m. to 6 p.m. in the Drive Thru- High School Traffic Loop, so participants can pick up on your way out of work!
Use the order form to get started: Best Buddies Fish Fry 2026 Order Form
Once payment is received you will receive a ticket to present the day of the event. Cash and Venmo can be used for payment!
As always, thank you for your support of the Best Buddies!
