Ursuline Academy will be holding its 26^th Ultimate Auction on

November 22, 2008, in our own Besl Theatre. This year’s event is guaranteed to be a sizzlin’ night of silent and live oral auction items. The success of Ursuline’s Annual Ultimate Auction cannot survive without the dedicated parents, alumnae, and friends of Ursuline.

 

It is our honor to announce that this year's Auction is co-chaired by couples Tony & Emmy Hobson, parents of Bea ’10 and Helen ’04, and Allen & Barb Backscheider, parents of Ally ’10. Together we are building a talented Steering Committee who will ensure that Auction 2008 breaks all records for proceeds. Working on the Auction is a community building event. Both silent acquisitions and live Auction committees have begun their enormous task of gathering items that are unique, one-of-a-kind, familiar, and yours to bid on!
