To all the members of our extended Saint Albert family:
Welcome to the 27th Annual Saint Albert Benefit Auction!
Office of the Bishop
As president of Saint Albert Schools, I consider the auction to be one of the
highlights of the school year. Not only does the event keep the cost of a Saint
Albert education affordable, the gathering of so many people also demonstrates a
spirit of cooperation among our school family.
April 2008
This year’s auction has some exciting new changes – primarily our new venue
at the Mid-America Center —but also some time-honored traditions which
highlight the best Saint Albert has to offer.
My Dear Friends,
Although my responsibilities in my parish prevent me from joining you for “Saturday Night
Fever” this evening, I am certainly with you in spirit. Your annual auction has been for many
years not only a tremendous fundraiser but also a wonderful gathering of the entire St. Albert
community.
Throughout your school history there has been much to celebrate. This year is no exception as
you rejoice in the success of your capital campaign & anticipate the construction which will
allow the entire student body to come together on one campus. Congratulations to all of you as
you celebrate what has been & the promise the future holds.
Enjoy your evening! May God continue to bless all you do to assure current students & future
generations the opportunity for Catholic education of the highest quality.
Sincerely yours in Christ,
Rev. Msgr. Stephen L. Orr
Diocesan Administrator

One of those traditions we’re bringing back to the auction this year is the raffle drawing for the 2008 Cadillac
Escalade. Having the drawing at the auction is a perfect way to publicly recognize the hundreds of volunteers who
make our two largest annual fundraisers possible.
Tonight we especially honor Theresa Martin, who chaired our auction event this year. We also honor Jon & Laura
Heisterkamp & T.J. & Laura Pattermann for coordinating the ticket sales efforts for our Escalade Raffle. Their
leadership & dedication to Saint Albert sets a positive example for our whole community.
On behalf of the 800 students & staff at Saint Albert, I would like to express a special thank you for your presence
here tonight. Through your generosity, you are making a direct impact on the quality of education we can provide
to our young people.
May God continue to bless you & your family,
President
Saint Albert Catholic Schools

Dear Friends:
All right disco fans…whether you’re a closet Bee Gee or a John Travolta “wanna-be”, reach way
back into your closets & dust off those platform shoes & those funky, far out threads. We’re
planning an evening to remember. Welcome to the 27th Annual St. Albert Auction, “Saturday
General Auction Rules
AGAIN THIS YEAR; Your seat number is NOT your bid number. Bid numbers will be assigned at check-in on the night of
the auction. One bid number per household is requested unless individuals plan to pay separately. Your BID NUMBER
IS USED FOR SILENT, SUPER SILENT & ORAL AUCTIONS. You are responsible for all the bids made by your number as
verified by a Benefit Auction Table Official during the Silent Auction/Super Silent or the auctioneer during the Oral Auction. Please do not let other bidders use your number. This will avoid confusion & possible embarrassment to the person
assigned the number.
Payment for successfully bid items may be made at the Finance tables (located in the hallway across from the auction
room) or as previously arranged with Auction pay. You may use cash, check, Mastercard or Visa.
Night Fever”! Can you dig it?
SOLD IS SOLD! All bid sales are final. No exchange or refunds on items except as specified. All items must be paid for on
the night of the Auction. No billings will be done. All checks are to made payable to “St. Albert Benefit Auction.”

Items must be removed the evening of the Benefit Auction unless special arrangements are made for larger items. Larger

amazed me & shown me yet another reason to be proud of being part of this wonderful
family. Thank you all for the giving of your time, talents, & guidance. You are truly a gift to our
community.
And now…all you groovy, cool cats— I want you to “feel the funk” & sit back & enjoy the
evening!

2008 Auction Chair
St. Albert makes no express or implied warranties or representations of any kind or nature with respect to the property or
services. By your purchase, the buyer waives any claims for liability against either St. Albert or the donor of the property
or services. Neither St. Albert nor the donor is responsible for personal injury or damage to property that may result from
the property or services sold.
It may be helpful to bidders in both the Silent & Oral Auctions to form “bidding groups” if the group is interested in bidding on “multi-use” or “group” type of items such as a dinner or fun item.
Silent Auction
All items in the Silent Auction have write-in bid sheets on the tables near the item. Persons desiring to bid are asked to
write their bid number, table number & amount of bid on each bid sheet. Each item is assigned a specific minimum bid
that is at the top of the bid sheet.
Each new bid must exceed the previous bid by at least the minimum increase stated on the bid sheet to constitute a valid
bid. The table host/hostess will circle your bid number, initial the bid sheet, collect the bid sheets, & record the final bid.
After you have paid for the item, you can leave it in the Silent Auction Room or take it to your car. After the item has been
released to you, it becomes your responsibility. Security will be provided for all items left in the Silent Auction Room during dinner & the Oral Auction.
Who is Theresa’s favorite
seventies band?
Oral Auction
The Oral Auction will begin after dinner & continue without interruption until items are sold. Each auction item is numbered. The auctioneer will call out the numbered item & give a brief description. Please examine the Oral Auction items,
which will be on display. A large screen will help highlight the item during the Oral Auction. The bidder can raise a bid by
raising his bid card which will be seen by the auctioneer. After the auctioneer has accepted the highest bid, a runner will
come to the successful bidder to write down his/her bid number & verify that he/she has made a successful bid.
The Oral Auction items must be paid for at the Finance table or as previously arranged with Auction pay. You may pay
anytime during the evening. The Oral Auction items will be released to the successful bidder upon receipt of the auctioneer’s sheet stamped “PAID” by the cashier. No item auctioned will be refunded, transferred, exchanged, or redeemed for
cash.

42. “Sunflower from Heaven” Painting by Deb McGuire and Mary Ann Poole
This 3 ft. X 4 ft. 9 in. impressionistic painting was begun by Deb McGuire, artist, teacher and friend of St. Albert.
Deb was a frequent visitor to my art studio on Monday nights as she spread her joy and love of nature and color
with my students and me. The dripping effect of the background and floral shape of this work was created by
Deb. It was one of her last major works. Her special dripping technique was her own creation. The colors and
painting of the flower were my interpretation of Deb’s love of pinks and purples. Somehow it seemed as if Deb
was there with me as I completed her work. It was a wonderful privilege to do so.
