ACE Auction
36th Annual ACE Auction 2010
ACE 2010 was a huge success this year raising a new record amount of $258,000.00 in total net proceeds! (Yes, that is over a quarter of a million dollars!) Oral auction item #60 (pledges towards a new school bus to be used by both TMP-Marian and Holy Family Elementary School) contributed over $40,000.00 of this amount. (If you would still like to make a pledge towards the new school bus, you can contact the Alumni Office.) What an amazing demonstration of love and support for our school!
Please accept our heartfelt thanks to all the alumni, friends, businesses and individual donors, advertisers, TMP-Marian faculty, staff and students along with all the numerous volunteers that helped to achieve this incredible goal. The Alumni Office could not plan and organize this fundraiser without the assistance of all of you!
Winners of the two $500.00 Friday night game raffle prizes at the Preview Party were Betty Baker and Becky Diehl.
Raffle prize drawing winners were:
2009 Ford Focus SE Raffle - Stan Weilert, Wichita, Kansas
Diamond Ring Raffle - Denise Brull, Hays, Kansas
$1,000 Cash Raffle - Joni Bellerive, Stockton, Kansas

$1,000 Cash Raffle - Cotty Seitz-Miles, Hays, Kansas
Congratulations to all of our winners!
