All desserts will be on display when guests arrive and each table will have the opportunity to place a group dessert bid. Thank you to all who have already signed up! Sign up here to purchase one or more desserts for this popular auction item!

Auction Night Volunteers

For such a large event, we need many volunteers on April 8 to make this a success. We are especially in need of food servers and volunteer bid spotters! If you would like to volunteer on April 8, please check out the Sign Up Genius

Thank you to Kristen Capka, who has graciously agreed to lead the volunteers. We would like all volunteer positions filled, but these ones are of particular importance: 

  • Food & Wine Servers (8 openings – each volunteer server saves the school $150)
  • Volunteer Bid Spotters (2 openings – help our two pro spotters identify auction bidders in the crowd)
  • Live Auction Recorder (1 more needed)
