(Modesto, CA) – The Modesto Junior College Foundation is Celebrating 95 Years of Educational Excellence as the theme for this year’s Summer Sonata which is slated for Thursday, July 21 at Greens on Tenth, located at 947 10th Street in downtown Modesto.

The event, held in Green’s new banquet facility, begins with a reception and silent auction at 5:30 p.m., followed by dinner at 6:45 p.m. After dinner there will be a program and a live auction.
The cost to attend is $150 per person and table sponsorships are available. Event proceeds benefit college programs, campus projects and student scholarships.

The Summer Sonata is the premier fundraiser for the Foundation and since its inception has provided almost $2 Million for MJC student scholarships, program grants, equipment and educational activities not provided by the state.
