Wrecking Crew to perform at Family Night Out
Their brand new event, "A Family Night Out," will take place at the Knights of Columbus Hall on Shoreview Road.
Guests will be treated to a buffet dinner, silent auction and live concert performed by The Wrecking Crew, as well as something special just for the kids.
"The Mothers Club annual spring fundraiser has traditionally been a craft market, with vendors selling a wide variety of products," says event co-chair Lee Ann Smith.
"Although the market was always very successful, it was pretty much a 'women-only' event."
"This year our club decided to do something a little different. Our goal was to put together a fun event for the whole family that could still serve as great fundraiser for our charities."
Lead by parent volunteers and event chairs, Kerry Slaughter and Leigh Ann Smith, several committees were formed to help in the planning. Volunteers Jennifer Schmiel and Sherry Marek are tasked with securing items for the silent auction, while Bridget Jung and Sadie Brackin are leading sales and event promotion endeavors.
In addition to a fun, family-friendly evening, the club's fundraising efforts are a top priority.
"The charities we are supporting this year include Missionaries of Charity, which provides services to the poor, the St. Patrick Outreach Program, which offers classes for refugees to help them get settled in our community and find employment, and The White Rose Women's Center, which provides help for women in crisis pregnancy situations," explains Smith.
"A portion of the funds raised will also be given to the St. Patrick School, St. Patrick Church, and used by the Mothers Club to cover operating expenses."
The silent auction promises to help the club meet their goals, and includes top items like rounds of golf at the Brookhaven Country Club, a charcoal architectural rendering of the winner's home by local artist, Jon Robertson, private swimming lessons with All-American, U.S. Nationals Champion Swimmer Candace Blackman, photography sittings, date night packages and many more.
Doors open at 5:45 p.m. on Friday, February 5th and tickets must be purchased in advance.
Prices are $20 for adults, $10 for students ages 3-17, and children ages 2 and under are free.
