Signature Event - Thank you!

Thank you! We raised $274,569 for St. Anthony on the Lake at our 6th Annual Signature Event on March 8!

What a fun and successful evening we had at our 6th annual Signature Event “Living on a Prayer,” at the Ingleside Hotel on Saturday, March 8, 2025! A guest list of 344 of you showed up in ‘80s style and in support of St. Anthony on the Lake. The purpose of the event is to come together as a faith family: our Catholic parish, school and lifelong faith formation programs -- to raise crucial funds to keep St. Anthony on the Lake thriving and moving forward. We honored our Profiles in Faith Award winners, Bob Bluhm and Dan Von Rueden and were inspired by The Brunner Family’s witness testimonial.

Thank you to the amazing 43 Sponsors of the night who contributed $111,375.00 in sponsorships. Thank you to those who came and who participated generously in our auctions of more than 100 items. Thank you to those who participated in our cash raffle which raised $13,000.

Thanks to our volunteer emcees, Dan and Ryan Hogan and our awesome DJ Dan Paulsrud.

Thank you to all those who made the event possible —our faculty/staff, Signature Event committee (listed below), donors and many volunteers. We are a blessed community indeed and we thank God for these many blessings.

Because of you, we raised a total of $274,569.22! This is about a $100,000 increase from the 2024 Signature Event! Your generosity will support the St. Anthony on the Lake budget in these areas:

CLASSROOM MATERIALS
