Congrats to Marina Del Rey Middle School

Last night the DNRC Board of Directors approved $4,500 in funds for Marina Del Rey Middle School. The money allows the P.E. department to buy new tumbling mats and variety of important after school clubs to purchase key materials. In addition, the DRNC will receive a banner announcing the educational partnership on a prominent wall of the school and sponsorship announcements in event programs and on athletic uniforms.

A healthy partnership for sure.

Thanks to all who worked tirelessly on the grant proposal. Anything that improves our neighborhood schools improves our neighborhood!
