On October 23, 2009, TCCS held it's 8th Annual Silent Auction and Dessert Night. TCCS families and friends were treated to a fun evening while supporting the school in its mission to provide quality education.

Once again, the gym was magically transformed into a winter wonderland. Tables were filled with beautifully arranged gift baskets, gift cards to local merchants, and priceless live auction items created and donated by each class. A big thank you to Eric Halverson who generously provided musical entertainment.

As it has in past years, the live auction generated much excitement among the guests and the auctioneer kept things moving along at a steady pace. The class creations were precious and by far the most popular items at the auction.

Sumptuous desserts were offered as well and many chocoholics ended the evening with their cravings satisfied.

Each year, TCCS depends on a successful auction fundraiser to keep tuition manageable for families. Thankfully, this year TCCS was blessed with $16,700 from the auction and a generous, anonymous donation for an additional $10,000. Many thanks to Carole Yoder, Marcella Donaldson, and Michelle Seidel for all of their hard work and to the entire auction team, which was the largest ever.

Remember, it's never too early to start thinking about your donations for next year's auction!
