We are pleased to announce that the 13th annual Black & White Knight gala – Winter Wonderland – raised $125,000 to support Saint James Catholic School. Despite the challenge that Mother Nature provided our committee just prior to the event, the evening was a great success! The event featured dinner, dancing, auction, and wheel of chance, creating a fun atmosphere for guests. A highlight of the event was the presentation of the Senator Joe Prather Distinguished Alumni Award to Diane Elmore Logsdon, honoring her outstanding contributions to the community. This event not only provides an enjoyable social affair for attendees, but also plays an important role in supporting the school’s mission. Funds raised at this event support various programs for our students and are used to help maintain salaries for our faculty and staff. An event of this scale requires hard work from many people. A special thank you to the volunteer committee, comprised of parent volunteers who spent several months working to make the event memorable. Additional thanks to those at SJS who were a big part of making the event successful, our dedicated faculty and staff worked hard preparing, planning and working the event. Finally, thank you to all those who sponsored the event, participated in the auction and attended – it is because of our entire community that the event continues to be so successful!
