Amazing Grapes Success

Warm temperatures and a light breeze served as the backdrop for the St. Ignatius annual Amazing Grapes fundraiser on Saturday, September 17 th, 2016. Over 300 parents, teachers, alumni, parishioners, family and friends gathered to support our children and their education. Our event sponsors, most from the SI community, provided fabulous food, premium wines and great tasting beers.

A huge thanks goes to dozens of parents who volunteered to help before, during and after the event. Cheers to our 50/50 raffle winner: Jennifer MacDonald who won $1,825. Also, to our additional Amazing Grapes raffle winners: 1st place ($800) – Amy Behr; 2nd place ($400) – Derek Yuke; and 3rd place ($200) – Taylor Greer and to our families who bid on an exciting array of auction items all helping to raise funds to benefit SI’s many programs. A big congratulations goes to 3rd grade for winning MOST PARTICIPATION and Kindergarten for winning MOST GRAPES SOLD in our “Grapes for Kids” contest.

Also, thanks to our amazing DJ and auctioneer, Sean DuFosee, who made our event fun, entertaining and very successful.

THANK YOU to our generous Sponsors and Donors. We are blessed to have so many wonderful people in our community who helped make this event happen!

Sincerely,

Heather Reeves Tammy Steiner Tina Gerges 2016 Co-Chairs of Amazing Grapes
