Finally, after two years of waiting to be together again, we will hold our traditional Auction & Gala this year. Special thanks to Freedom Street Partners for being our Presenting Sponsor again! We are celebrating our 32nd year of holding this event. The Silent Auction will open online Monday, November 14th at 9 am with over 200 items and will close right before the in-person Live Auction starts at 7:30 pm. 30 Live Auction items will be up for bids! Live Auction will not be a Zoom or streamed event. Live Auction bidding will take place at the school with our Auctioneer extraordinaire, Scott Danner, back again to get everyone bidding on the great grade level Class Packages and more!


We will be using the One Cause BidPal online and mobile application that was used for the virtual Auction for the last 2 years. You and your guests are cordially invited to join us on November 19th at 5 pm for dinner, drinks, dancing, and fun at this adults-only event! Browsing and online bidding for the Silent Auction will begin on Monday, November 14th at 9 am and run through November 19th at 7:30 pm. The Live Auction will begin at 7:30 pm on November 19th. The link to register for online Silent Auction bidding will open on October 24th and remains open through November 20th. All proceeds benefit the students and school. This event generates $63,000 or more each year for the school. It is attended by 260-300 people.
