St. Paul Auction 2008

The auction is scheduled for Saturday, May 3, 2008 at St. Paul Lutheran
School. This year's title is Carry the Torch�Light the Way and we will be
incorporating an Olympic theme.

Every child deserves to feel like a champion but not every child can be that
Olympic champion. They can be gold medalists in life with a solid Christian
education as a foundation. And just as every world-class athlete trains
regularly to be the best in his chosen event, we can give our children the tools,
resources and guidance to train them to be their best in every aspect of life �
scholastically, socially, morally and spiritually.

The St. Paul Lutheran School Annual Auction and Charity Dinner is the
school�s biggest fundraiser of the year, providing the necessary funding to
purchase items such as computer equipment, playground equipment,
textbooks, a reading resource teacher�s salary, continuing education for
teachers, etc. Last year, we achieved our highest proceeds ever, and we
would never have been able to accomplish this without donations that were
made to support this very worthy cause. Every year it gets more difficult to
meet budgets, so we are being very optimistic about the 2008 auction. Our
business donors receive valuable exposure before and after the event through
pre-event promotions, auction web site listings, and media announcements.
During the auction itself, businesses are able to get their product/service and
name in front of approximately 400 attendees and volunteers. We hope that
you will be able to assist us with a donation.

Please feel free to contact any of the auction co-chairs with questions you may
have.

�I�ve never felt like I was
alone when I�m out there
competing,� Clay said. �A lot
of people get all this
pressure built on them and
they get so stressed out
because they feel like it�s all
on their shoulders. I�ve never
felt like that. I�ve always
been able to give that to God
and allow Him to carry that
burden for me.�
