What is Black Tie Blue Jeans?

We define it as dressed up Blue Jeans. Something a bit nicer than you'd wear to the park with the kids. At Thurston we are a caring and committed community, but we are NOT fussy.

The short answer: It's more important that you come and show your support than what you are wearing when you arrive. 
NO DRESS CODE
Just Adult Only fun – If you choose to drink, please be sure to have a plan to get home safely.

Leave the kids at home, grab some dinner then come enjoy an evening of fun. Thurston you’ve been waiting for a chance to get to know other adults at the school. Spending a few hours on a Saturday night raising money for the school might just be the chance you’ve been looking for. BTBJ 2019 is an awesome way for Thurston adults (past, present and future) to start a new school year – making new friends and supporting the school community.

If you cannot attend BTBJ, please consider making a donation
