2015-2016
St. Benedict Parish Education Endowment Update Endowment continues to grow thanks to recent events. Eighty-three golfers came out this past September for a day of fun at Sunset Valley Golf Course in Highland Park to support our endowment efforts. Over $13,000 has been raised over the last two years through this golf outing for the parish endowment. We are grateful to the committee who organized another great success: Alfredo Alvarez, David Keenan, Max Nutkowitz, Pete Quinn, and Jeff Remotigue. The day started with brunch at Rocks in North Center, followed by 18 holes of golf, and ended with a barbecue dinner and awards ceremony.
Thank You To Our Generous Sponsors!
The induction of Mrs. Laurette Kittler, HS drama teacher from 1959-1995, this past October into our Alumni Hall of Fame brought together hundreds of alumni to celebrate her legacy and to provide another contribution to the parish endowment. The first endowment award for drama was presented to HS senior Antonio Gonzalez in her honor. Over $10,000 was realized for the parish education endowment through the generosity of our alumni who put together a night to remember. This evening was an extraordinary outpouring of love for their favorite drama teacher. After Mass and dinner, a musical revue highlighting her career at Saint Benedict High School was performed by alumni and current students. Thanks to our dedicated organizers: Bill Bergfalk ‘76, Rich Paschall ‘69, and Mike Teolis ‘71.
Each Gift Becomes a Legacy for the Future of St. Benedict Parish and Preparatory School!
