Incarnation School Holds Fundraising Bash at Bourbon Street

PALOS HEIGHTS, IL -- Incarnation Catholic School in Palos Heights is calling all alumni, former teachers and parishioners to a special fundraiser from 2 to 7 p.m. this Sunday, Jan. 7. The bash will be held at 115 Bourbon Street, 3359 W. 115th St. in Merrionette Park. The afternoon promises fun for all, including live entertainment, food buffet, beer, wine and pop, plus a chance to win a 55-inch flat screen TV.

Incarnation Catholic School has been around for over 50 years at 5705 W. 127th St., Palos Heights. Recent years have made it increasingly challenging for parochial schools to keep their doors open. As part of families and parishioners’ efforts to rebuild Incarnation “one student at a time,” a special fundraiser is being held.

“Incarnation families are passionate about our school and parish. We also feel that we must do our best to preserve Catholic Education -- it is mandatory for a better world going forward,” the school says in a written statement.

Sunday’s entertainment includes a DJ, the Superfly Redneck Band, Lavin Cassidy School of Irish Dance and the Chicago Police Department’s Bagpipes and Drums of the Emerald Society.

Tickets are $35 in advance, which can be purchased online at Give Central, which includes a ticket for the drawing of the 55-inch flat screen, or $40 at the door. Sponsorships are available.
