WINTERFEST VI
Saturday, January 30, 2010
Each year, the St. Rita parents host the annual Winterfest gala. The school is transformed that evening into a grand gathering of the St. Rita family and friends, 21 years of age and older. As was done last year, we will have a silent auction. We are asking every family to participate to make this year, the most successful ever!
If you don't already have your tickets, you can still purchase them: $ 40 prepaid, $50 at the door, or $30 senior price if you are 62 or older. They are available at the Main Office, Mustang Store and the Development Office. The price includes dinner and a 5 hour open bar. This is the best entertainment deal of the year!
We would like each family to help in each of the following two ways:
Winterfest Desserts!
