Regis Green and Gold Gala
By: Cassidy Anglin
At Regis St. Mary High School, we like to host an event to help support our school. This event is called the Green and Gold Gala. It’s an auction that gives us the opportunity to obtain money to upgrade our school and allows us to do community service activities. These auctions happen every year, and every year, people have the opportunity to win many prizes offered up by our community, for example, baked goods, game boards, gift baskets, and even a car donated by Power.
Students from both Regis and Regis St. Mary’s will come over to help manage the auction. Participants from middle school to high school make sure that the auction goes smoothly, as well as directing and offering tickets that you can buy. The food presented at the auction varies greatly from each year, and the attendees beforehand can choose what they want for their dish. Desserts will be open for grabs, and the prizes will be on display for you to observe.
The Green and Gold Gala will take place on April 26, 2025, and the doors will open at 5:00 PM. Dinner reservations are eighty dollars, while the raffle tickets are fifty dollars with a buy two, get one free discount. The raffle grand prize is a new 2025 KIA K4 LXS with automatic transmission, 29/30 city highway MPG with an interstellar gray exterior as well as interior. Second place gets a thousand dollars in cash, and third place gets five hundred dollars.
Highlights that will be presented at the Gala are merit awards presented to Anna Boedigheimer and Tom, and Carolyn Lulay, super silent as well as live auctions with the car raffle drawing, open bar, and catered dinner, and an afterparty with live music by Timothy James. The attire for the auction is suggested to be Cocktail themed, and dinner reservations are due by April 16. The silent auction, which has never been done before, will be exclusively online from April 18-25 and can be accessed through the Regis 2025 Green and Gold Gala website. All the sponsors for this event, starting with our premier sponsor, Freres Engineered Wood Products, and our platinum sponsors are Cascade Floors Inc., True Private Wealth Advisors, and North Santiam Paving Co.
