Friday, May 2^nd, 2008 is the date for St. Al’s 9^h Annual Benefit Auction.  This year’s theme is A Party in the Garden.  Each year, hundreds of parishioners help make this event a huge success.  This is our primary fund-raiser, with all proceeds going directly into the parish’s general operating fund.

There are so many ways that our generous family of faith support this annual event:

• purchasing (and selling) our Cash Raffle tickets
• donating purchased and new items for the auction’s raffle, silent or oral auction areas
• making a cash donation to the Auction
• becoming a corporate sponsor of the Auction
• purchasing a Winner’s Circle raffle ticket
• attending the auction and bidding on items

The auction itself is a night of fun, food and fellowship.  The varying themes from year to year give everyone the opportunity to “dress up” in clothing that goes along with the theme.  This year’s A Party in the Garden theme is sure to bring out folks in bright floral outfits, garden dungarees, and creative party attire!

Contact our Auction Chair, Vickie Major    or call Jim Deysach at our parish office, 421-2442 for more information.
