Chinese Auction

Thursday night we had an awesome time at our annual Chinese Auction Fundraiser. Over 300 people came to support the school by buying chances to win specially prepared baskets. Mrs. Smith, Mrs. Donofrio and many others donated their time in getting donations from local business' and generous friends and making beautiful baskets to display.

We started by previewing the 150 baskets and the Marriot Windwatch was a buzz with folks choosing where to put their tickets. At 7:30 the salad was being served and we began picking out the winners. Basket by basket there were shouts of "that's me" and "I won" as eager benefactors got up to receive their prizes.

We had a lovely dinner and dessert and announced the winners throughout the night. The prizes ended with the winners of the 50" Flat Screen TV and the $1,000 money board. The night ended at 10:30 with winners from every table carrying out their prizes. My daughter won a Pannini maker for me and a Food Processor for her sisters. People won door prizes as well as prizes for answering the 30 different trivia questions asked by Mrs. Caldeira throughout the night.

All in all it was a great night of fun and fellowship with thousands of dollars raised for the school! We are all looking forward to next year's Chinese Auction!

Grace and Peace,
