2009 10th Annual Social & Auction Benefit
Auction Success!!!!
The foundation would like to thank all of the people and organizations who supported Oregon City Students by donating, volunteering their time, or joining us at our 10th annual auction. We are excited and pleased with the outcome of this event.
As some of you know, or recognized, the Oregon City Schools Foundation decided to scale back our auction this year. We chose to do this due to the state of our economy. The foundation wanted to create an event where anyone who believes in our mission, and wanted to support our schools had an opportunity to do so. The auction was held at the Willamette Falls Community Health Education Center on April 4th. We raised over $40,000 and everyone had a great time!
Some of the enjoyment of the evening was possible because of our wonderful entertainment. The OCHS Rendevous Choir and the duo Carlson-Rae donated their time and talents to the evening. The Rendevous Choir is one of Oregon City High Schools award winning choirs. They will perform for the last time this year on May 29th at the OCHS Theater.
Carlson-Rae include two incredibly talented individuals, Tiffany Carlson and Melanie Rae. If you missed listening to them or would like to hear them again you can visit Carlson-Rae’s web-site at www.carlsonrae.com to find out where they will be performing.
The success of this fundraiser was possible in part because of the generosity from our sponsors and donors. The members of the foundation board can not stress enough how much we appreciate the support from these individuals. Our event sponsors this year were:
