Event History:  The first LREF fundraising event, the Wildcat Gala, was held in 2005 at Highland Springs Country Club. Since then, we have raised nearly $675,000 for Logan-Rogersville schools. In 2014, the event was renamed to the Denim & Diamonds gala and relocated to the White River Conference Center at Bass Pro.

Money donated to LREF is placed in an endowment fund, and the income generated is used each year to enhance the curriculum of our students, purchase supplies and equipment for the Logan-Rogersville R-VIII School District, establish scholarships for both students and teachers, and supplement student fund-raising activities for trips and competitions.

By supporting the Logan-Rogersville Educational Foundation, you have a great opportunity to give back and help us ensure that our schools have the resources they need to provide more meaningful educational experiences to our students. As a community, when we work together, the kids win.
