2015 Gala Thank You!
/in St. James Notices /by Saint James SchoolA huge Thank You to all the parents, staff, and friends who came out for the 2015 Saint James School Gala on Saturday. The feedback has been very positive and, while we are still totaling the exact proceeds from the event, we know we raised a lot of money in support of Saint James School.
Of course, we could not have done it without the amazing support and hard work of the Gala Committee and all the volunteers that worked at the event. Thank you to Gala Chair Paul Munns for pulling it all together and to volunteer Jen Fiereck of J. Fiereck Photography for the fun pictures (a few of which are below). And last, but not least, THANK YOU to all the parents, staff, and friends who donated items for the class baskets or for the live and silent auctions. We could not have done it without your support – Saint James is certainly blessed to have such a wonderful school community!
