Benefit Event
The fund-raising event held on April 13th at Our Lady of Lourdes parish center was a satisfying success, thanks to the combined efforts of many hard-working, creative, and generous friends who expended time and treasure to make sure that everyone who participated had an enjoyable time.
The colorfully wrapped door prizes, silent auction, abundance of delicious food, hours of music and dancing and good fellowship provided an entertaining (and for some, a profitable) evening.
The cash prizes were claimed by the following happy winners:
| Mr. and Mrs. Tom McLoughlin | $1,000.00 |
| Mr. and Mrs. Lee Eilers | $1,000.00 |
| Knights of Columbus, Council 8740 | $1,000.00 |
| Sisters of the Visitation | $1,000.00 |
| Fr. Lewis S. Fiorelli, OSFS, and Mary Ellen Strei | $1,000.00 |
| Joe Carl Jordan | $5,000.00 |
A special feature of the evening was the debut of a variety of Heavenly Hash ice cream, created and supplied by Old Dutch Ice Cream Shoppe. If it becomes available to the public, it will probably be known as "Heavenly Habit" ice cream, and part of the proceeds will be donated to the Visitation nuns.
Here are a few photos taken throughout the evening. See anyone you know?
