AUCTION

thANK YOU FOR YOUR SUPPORT OF PUTTIN' ON THE RITZ 2010!

Official totals are still being gathered, but preliminary reviews show that the March 20 auction, Puttin' on the Ritz—Midnight in the Garden of Athena, was a huge success with over 1,100 guests in attendance! School administrators extend thanks to all who attended, donated an item or volunteered their time to make the event a hit. 
  
The school was transformed into a Mediterranean wonderland throughout the hallways while parents, alumni, school staff and friends crowded around themed tables, bidding on vacation getaways, unique baskets, items for the home and even motor scooters. The Interactive Auction was a hit, with bright screens lighting up busy corners of the auction floors where guests were able to bid electronically via laptops and Apple tablets and could watch the bid status of select items on large screens.

A very special thanks is extended to everyone who helped make the auction a success. Click here to see a list of individuals and companies that donated to the auction. If you contributed but don’t see your name, please contact Alice Luzzi at 312-432-8404.

We also thank all the Saint Ignatius faculty, staff and alumni who manned the check-in, check-out and raffle stations. Two lucky families won free tuition for the 2010-2011 school year and three prizes were distributed in the Grecian Goblet cash raffle. Click here to see photos from event night and thanks again for your support! You are truly, truly "men and women for others."
