Night of Knights Auction

The Auction Committee wishes to thank everyone who contributed to the outstanding success of last year’s auction. The 21st annual Night of Knights Auction held on April 14, 2007 raised a record $110,000 for St. Mary’s School.

The Knight of Knights Auction is the main fundraiser for St. Mary’s School. 85% of the proceeds go to the school’s general operating fund and 15% funds the Home and School Association.

Mark your calendar to attend the 22nd Annual Auction on April 12th, 2008 at St. Mary’s School.  This year’s event promises to be another fun-filled evening featuring a “Fiesta” theme.  Decorations, food and beverages and auction items will reflect the “Fiesta” theme.

New this year is our first “CAR and CASH” Raffle!  A limited number of tickets will be sold and the winner will be drawn during the live auction.  The Grand Prize is a 2 year lease on a new 2008 Ford Edge “Limited”, 2nd Prize is $1000, and 3rd Prize is $500.  Tickets are being sold for $50 each and may be purchased at the school office, at the KC Hall or from any committee member.  Hurry and get your “Winning Ticket”!!

The past success of the auction has been due to the generous support of the St. Mary’s Staff, the Owatonna Business Community, families of the St. Mary’s students, parishioners and St. Mary’s School Alumni.  We are grateful for their continued support year after year!  The auction committee is always looking for people or businesses willing to donate their time and treasure toward making this event a success.  Please contact a committee member if you are interested in making a contribution to the 2008 Auction.

If you are looking for donation ideas we are always in need of house-hold goods, small and large electronics, vacation destinations, bikes, camping or yard equipment, tools, gourmet food baskets, sports equipment, theme dinners, services (painting, snow-removal, photography, etc.), lawn mowers, art work, tickets to sporting events or concerts, and children’s toys.  We always welcome any other ideas you may have!!

Please contact a committee member if you have any questions or would like to make a donation.
