Once again, we are honored to chair the Wild West Bazaar. The community of St. Vincent de Paul and Sacred Heart School is unbelievably amazing! This year has thrown more than a few curve balls and we have continued to move forward. Like most things in 2020, the Wild West Bazaar Dinner Auction is poised to be unlike any other. But even though we are not able to gather together in the McGremlin Gym, we are asking you, our incredible community of donors and supporters to raise your virtual paddles, bid on items, and make donations to our parish and school so they can continue their missions. We are asking you to “circle the wagons” and dig deep to support our students and parish because we know a successful Bazaar Dinner Auction is critical to both the parish and school’s immediate and future needs. Our parish community, the school, and the greater Pettis County area benefit in many ways from tonight’s Dinner Auction. Proceeds from the Wild West Bazaar directly benefit student programs & school improvements, parish outreach programs, and the needs of our parishioners. In preparing to make the Bazaar Dinner Auction a success, we have counted on and received help from our committee members, volunteers, faculty & staff and all individuals that made this evening possible, we thank you for your commitment and generosity to the parishioners and students of our church and school. We would like to thank all parishioners of St. Vincent DePaul, all the wonderful parents & alumni of Sacred Heart School and other friends who are logged on with us this evening. So here we go, taking the Wild West Bazaar Dinner Auction into cyberspace. Check your internet connection, log on, grab a cold beverage, and bid high and bid often! Giddy Up!

  • 2009 Sustainable Gala Catalogue
    August 27, 2009 • Camp Tapawingo WPSHC Foundation Creating a Sustainable Gala When we first began planning tonight’s gala, the world was a different place. George Bush presided as President of the United States and Canada’s Governor General was in the midst of the unenviable task of determining who should govern our country. Despite the turmoil or maybe because of it, our Committee wanted to create a summer gala that offered comfort. At our first meeting of the Gala Committee, we agreed the meal would offer local food. An old fashion picnic began to take form with Camp Tapawingo as the logical location. For us, the seed of tonight’s Sustainable Gala was informed by years of memories of summer’s best offerings. My cottage is 10 minutes away (by car) from the Carling Market, by most standards a humble spot. Maybe 15 vendors at the max but those vendors offer a plethora of foods. I’m also fortunate enough to cottage 10 minutes (by bicycle or boat) from one of the last commercial fishermen on the Bay. This simple fact makes entertaining summer guests a delightful affair. Our cottage dinner parties are invariably an offering of local white fish complemented by Carling Market vegetables and preserves. The meal culminates in a grand finale of one of my homemade pies. My mum was a terrific pie maker, savoury and sweet. I’ve inherited both her ability to create pies and her good sense to serve them often ensuring they become one of our cottage staples. A similar thread ran through my interviews with creators of tonight’s Parry Sound Tart Auction, the tradition of one generation adopting the joys of pie making from the other.

  • Sofia Coppola and the Significance of an Appealing Aesthetic
    SOFIA COPPOLA AND THE SIGNIFICANCE OF AN APPEALING AESTHETIC by LEILA OZERAN A THESIS Presented to the Department of Cinema Studies and the Robert D. Clark Honors College in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Bachelor of Arts June 2016 An Abstract of the Thesis of Leila Ozeran for the degree of Bachelor of Arts in the Department of Cinema Studies to be taken June 2016 Title: Sofia Coppola and the Significance of an Appealing Aesthetic Approved: r--~ ~ Professor Priscilla Pena Ovalle This thesis grew out of an interest in the films of female directors, producers, and writers and the substantially lower opportunities for such filmmakers in Hollywood and Independent film. The particular look and atmosphere which Sofia Coppola is able to compose in her five films is a point of interest and a viable course of study. This project uses her fifth and latest film, Bling Ring (2013), to showcase Coppola's merits as a filmmaker at the intersection of box office and critical appeal. I first describe the current filmmaking landscape in terms of gender. Using studies by Dr. Martha Lauzen from San Diego State University and the Geena Davis Institute on Gender in Media to illustrate the statistical lack of a female presence in creative film roles and also why it is important to have women represented in above-the-line positions. Then I used close readings of Bling Ring to analyze formal aspects of Sofia Coppola's filmmaking style namely her use of distinct color palettes, provocative soundtracks, car shots, and tableaus. Third and lastly I went on to describe the sociocultural aspects of Coppola's interpretation of the "Sling Ring." The way the film explores the relationships between characters, portrays parents as absent or misguided, and through film form shows the pervasiveness of celebrity culture, Sofia Coppola has given Bling Ring has a central ii message, substance, and meaning: glamorous contemporary celebrity culture can have dangerous consequences on unchecked youth.
