The Borromeo Bulletin - #27

Home of the Bobcats: March 19, 2021

From Dr. Voelkl

Happy Tuesday all,

In addition to this week's parent letter you will also be receiving an email very shortly with third quarter report cards. After reviewing the documents, should you have any questions or concerns PLEASE feel free to reach out to your child's homeroom teacher and/or specific content area teacher. All of our students have worked EXTREMELY hard this year and persevered through a number of challenging circumstances. It has been a tremendous blessing that we have been able to continue in person learning throughout the 2020-2021 school year. We continue to encourage all of our students to stay focused and put forth their personal best effort as we push through this final quarter of the school year. There is A LOT of learning yet to occur! THANK YOU as always for sharing your children with us.

Blessings,

Dr. Voelkl

Raffle Tickets for the Auction

Next week you will receive this letter with the Raffle Tickets from our Auction committee. Please sell as many as you can! Remember, this fundraiser is our main event and we need your help!

Dinner Auction

Dear Borromeo Friends & Family,

As you reflect on the past year, we sure know it has been a different one and as we move into 2021 we are doing our best to plan forward into our St. Charles Borromeo Communities future. Through the tough and even the best times the great news is St. Charles Borromeo Parish continues to grow, and our school has earned a reputation for providing a rigorous academic education in addition to a balanced moral and religious upbringing. Now more than ever, we need your help to continue the traditions of community and academic excellence.

To support our parish and renowned school, the St. Charles Borromeo Parish will be hosting a virtual auction event, “Havana Nights” on Saturday, April 17, 2021. This event is our biennial fundraiser, and we hope that with your support, our parish can continue to support growing families and minds.

With previous St. Charles Borromeo auctions, we have also been able to support the church and parishioners in many different philanthropic needs, in addition to supporting a technology and security fund, which allowed the school to purchase new equipment for the Stem classroom, video technology for all classrooms and enhanced security through the inside and outside of the building. We are also excited to launch our Capital Campaign for the School and Parish expansion.

As a strong supporter of our parish and school, we would love the opportunity to showcase you with a sponsorship or donation to the auction. Your presence and donation will help generate buzz, and hopefully some strong bidding wars to support St. Charles Borromeo!

Please join me in our continued effort to educate the future leaders and support our families in the St. Charles community.

Below are the opportunities we have for sponsorships starting at $100 up to $5000. We have also included the link to purchase tickets to attend the festivities in the comfort of your own home. Please feel free to ask any questions to borromeoevents@gmail.com or taraleighbartlett@gmail.com

We look forward to having you join us and/or joining us as a sponsor. Sincerely, Jill Kesler & Carrie Hodapp - Auction 2021 Co-Chairs

Did you know….

Let's share some details for our "virtual" auction. You might be wondering do I need a ticket? Can I just watch online for free? How does dinner work?

In order to participate and bid on both our silent and live items you will need a ticket. The ticket will be your link to enjoy all the events of the evening we have planned. There will be a live streamed pre-cocktail party, dinner and drinks that you will pick up before the event, sponsor recognition during the event and LIVE streaming to our wonderful returning emcee Venton Blandin! Both silent and live items will open and close at certain times just like when our event was in person.
