REMINDER: The MHS Junior Class Auction

WHAT: Junior Class Auction

WHEN: March 8th from 7:00 to 10:00 WHERE: Salem Waterfront Hotel and Marina

WHY: To support and fund the Junior Class

The Junior Class Auction is almost upon us! Come help support the Junior class on Friday, March 8th, at the Salem Waterfront Hotel and Marina, in Salem. The Auction is from 7:00 to 10:00 in the evening, and it is being hosted this year by the fantastic Billy Costa of KISS 108FM and NECN. Tickets are $25.00 per person, and checks can be made payable to the town of Marblehead, and mailed to or dropped off at the Cummings residence, 107 Atlantic Avenue, Marblehead, MA.

In addition, the auction is running a fantastic contest this year. For ten dollars, you can buy beads, which count as a token to enter the contest. It is a high-stakes heads or tails competition. The winner, the last person standing, gets a weekend at a lakefront house in Poland, Maine. Entertainment will be provided by Addy Sleeman and Julia Taliesin, as well as MHS Strings. This event is only open to adults, so leave the kids at home. There will be cocktails, hors d'oeuvres, and raffles, in addition to the main silent and live auctions. It's not too late to donate to the auction either!

Donations to the auction can be delivered to the Moscone home, at 34 Sevinor Road. In addition, wine bottles can be donated to the "wine cellar." Those can be dropped off at the McCarthy home at 32 Sevinor Road, the Ponsetto residence at 43 Gregory Street, or the Krypel house at 99 Beacon Street. This is the largest fundraiser of the year for the Junior class, and it helps deflate the cost of senior banquet, senior prom, the class trip, and the class gift. This fundraiser also helps provide financial aid to students who otherwise would not be able to participate in some school events. Every bit of support is welcomed and encouraged, and the Junior class hopes to see everyone at the auction on March 8th!
