https://docs.google.com/document/d/1kZJ6iVqzLcS6AkBhHvDCFryD18AILuFWVarRQT5QXhM/edit 1/2

SAVE THE DATE: Saturday, November 9, 2019 KC Banquet Hall | Clyde Park Ave

What is the Auction for? The SJV Auc�on raises funds for needs within our Parish and School, and scholarship funds for the SJV Founda�on. Parish needs have included items like new vestments, new choir music, and bus transporta�on for our teens to a�end the Steubenville Youth Conference. Schools needs typically focus on technology, to ensure our students always have the best tools available for learning. Last year, we also raised over $19,000 for the Founda�on to disburse as scholarships for students to a�end our school. What happens at this event? A lot of fun!! You enjoy a delicious dinner, fabulous drinks, and even get the chance to celebrate on the dance floor. You can bid on silent auc�on “Twist Tables” to help fund specific needs, enter to win fabulous raffle prizes, and raise your paddle for some of the exci�ng Live Auc�on items. Most importantly, we come together as a community to be generous to our Parish and School. Please plan to join us! How can I help? There are so many ways to help with this event. Some only take a few hours of your �me, and others can be done well in advance of the event.

1) Donate your time and talent! Join our team and help plan this exci�ng evening. There is a list of the different roles we need filled on the back of this sheet. This is our most cri�cal need - if we don’t have the people, it’s hard to have a quality event. Please prayerfully consider joining our team.

2) Donate an Auction item! We will start collec�ng dona�ons this spring, and we need all kinds of items. Gi� cards to local restaurants or stores, �ckets to special events or spor�ng events, a week at a co�age or in a �meshare or other des�na�on would all be welcome! Cash is welcome too, as we can o�en get items at a discount to include in our packages.

3) Be a sponsor! We are looking for businesses or individuals to sponsor different parts of the evening, or to help with matching funds during our Twist Tables. Sponsorship is a great way to gain exposure for your business, or to help inspire others to be generous.

How do I learn more? Join us for a brief informa�onal mee�ng on Sunday, March 24 at 11:45am in the Village Hall. Or contact Chad and Amanda Hoop at thehoops2013@gmail.com or 616-406-6131.
