More than 200 Attend Fashion Show at Mehlville High School

Many thanks to Kathy Bosch, president of the Mehlville High School Mothers' Club, for providing the following information on this event, which took place at Mehlville High School!

The Spring Fashion Show was a success with more than 200 people attending. The fashion show has become a tradition at Mehlville that has been going on for at least 20 years. 

This year, one of Mehlville's principals, Mr. Angelo Colona (shown in one of the attached photos) made his last walk down the runway because he is retiring at the end of this school year. He has participated in it for 20 years. 

We had 37 of our students model, plus four administrators, two teachers with their children and five Brownies from Girl Scout Troop 1609 from Hagemann Elementary School.  

It took about 40 Mothers' Club members, led by Amy Lindemann, to pull this event together. Many of them have been working on it since November. Before the fashion show, a delicious dinner was catered by The Pasta House Company. 

Several local retailers generously lent the new spring fashions for our event, and many others contributed items for baskets that were raffled off during the evening. 

The money raised from this event is used by Mothers' Club to support all our students with Project Graduation for each class (it is the all night, alcohol-free party for Seniors the night of Graduation), many of our student organizations and improvements to the school that otherwise would not be possible due to budget constraints.
