BCHS Extravaganza 2019 Dinner & Auction
Gala/Party for Berks Catholic High School ExtravaganzaOct 04, 2019 from 6:00 PM to 11:30 PM
Extravaganza was started in 1982, as a dinner and auction, by a group of determined parents and volunteers. Over the past 35+ years, it has raised ove $5 Million.
It is our largest yearly fundraiser. All proceeds from this event go directly into the operating budget of the school which enables us to dedicate more funds to scholarships for students in need. As of now more than 50% of our families are receiving some form of financial assistance; out of those families 80% are low income, inner city families. Because the school district our facility is located in (Reading School District) is classified as one of Pennsylvania's failing school districts, any scholarships/financial aid we can offer, allows families living in the area, another option to educate their children. Through the generous support we have received from not only our surrounding business community but also some generous National Companies we have been able to work toward keeping the cost within reach while also providing upgrades to our facilities along with our academic and athletic programs.
Extravaganza is a two evening event- Thursday, October 3, 2019 is our Family & Donor Night, held from 6-8pm in the school gymnasium. All parents, alumni, friends, and donors are invited to be guests of the school for refreshments and a chance to bid on the silent auction items and homeroom basket auction. It is our "thank You" for contributing to our success.
Friday, October 4, 2019 beginning at 6pm, is the EXTRAVAGANZA dinner/auction for 250-300 people. The evening includes hors d'oeuvres, open bar, silent and live auctions, raffle drawing, music and entertainment @$150.00 per person.
We would like to take this opportunity to Thank You in advance for your consideration of helping us with our upcoming EXTRAVAGANZA 2019
