As always, THANK YOU for your continued support of St. Alphonsus Parish & School. We are so grateful for all you do to support our community!
St. Alphonsus Parish is proud to use student servers for our auction!
This counts as volunteer hours for the students, saves St. Al's the money we'd otherwise have to pay for adult waitstaff, and is a lot of fun!
Students in grades 4-8 are eligible, as well as high school students.
Students should arrive at 4:30 and will be done around 10:00pm. Students assist with table setup and decor; serve appetizers to guests during cocktail hour, and work in the dining room, clearing plates, serving entrees, serving coffee, etc.
We will feed students shortly after arrival. They should wear a plain white shirt or blouse with black pants or a black skirt, and comfortable, closed toe shoes.
