On Saturday, April 29th, our community will come together to celebrate the 139-year-old tradition of Catholic education in Plattsmouth. Our 24th Annual Spring Dinner and Auction is the biggest event of the year, and we hope you will be part of the fun!
All proceeds from the event will support our Parish school and help ensure a Catholic education is accessible and affordable to families in our community.
We haven’t even started celebrating yet and dinner tickets to this event are sold out!!! Wow!!! Thank you to everyone who purchased tickets. We appreciate your enthusiasm and support!
For those who didn’t purchase dinner tickets, no worries … there are many ways you can still participate and support the event.

Our silent auction will be online through Qtego again this year … so even if you can’t attend the event, you can still participate in the silent auction. We have some amazing super silent and silent auction packages! Also on the Qtego website, you can purchase raffle tickets and make a donation to help fund one of our special projects.

The silent auction will open for bidding on Monday, April 24th and will close on Saturday, April 29th at 9:00 p.m.
3. Give Your Time – Volunteer
We are grateful for all the ways our Parish and school community come together to make the Spring Dinner and Auction a huge success every year. An event this size would not be possible without the dedicated people who give their time and talent.
If you’re not attending the event, consider being a part of the fun while also “doing good.” Volunteers are needed to help at the event, as well as before and after the event. If you have a child in high school looking for service hours, this is a fun event to work.
