Ursuline Academy Proudly Presents the 34th Annual ULTIMATE AUCTION ULT IMATE AUCTION November 19, 2016 Dear Friends of Ursuline, It is my pleasure to welcome you to the 34th Annual Ultimate Auction, Saturday Night Fever. For the past 24 years, I have had the privilege of watching the Ultimate Auction grow from its infancy into an enormous enterprise that directly benefits our students. This year is no exception! The countless hours of planning, laughter, and hard work will come to fruition this evening as our volunteers execute their well-laid plans. To our dedicated and hard-working auction co-chairs, Lynn & Pete Olmsted and Amy & Vince Metzger, I say thank you. Their willingness to provide leadership to hundreds of Ursuline parents embodies the UA traditions of service, a willing spirit and cooperation. Their efforts, and the efforts of so many, ensure a prosperous and exciting auction. Our auction volunteers have invested a year in planning this wonderful evening, the results of which support Ursuline’s ability to fulfill its mission. Marla Hricovsky, our Auction Coordinator, along with Angela Brock, our Auction & Special Events Manager, has done a terrific job of assembling the many pieces of the auction puzzle. Thank you for your support of the Ultimate Auction and Ursuline Academy. Have a wonderful evening and enjoy the fun and festivities of this year’s auction, Saturday Night Fever.

It’s not hard to imagine that an Ursuline student would be using lingo such as “far out” and “awesome” to describe herself during this psychedelic decade. So while we celebrate the 70s era this evening we are reminded just how far Ursuline Academy has come in the last 40 years. Ursuline Academy is still considered the best of the best! The tradition of excellence can be found in academics, performing arts, athletics, and service organizations. For our daughters, opportunities to learn and challenge themselves are no different than they were years ago. Just like the women who came before them, our students know there are no boundaries to what they can achieve. So while we come together on this Saturday Night, let’s get our groove on and celebrate the past, present, and future of our Ursuline community. Chairing the Ultimate Auction has been one of our most memorable experiences, and we are blessed to surround ourselves with all of you who have generously given your time, talent, and treasure to make “Saturday Night Fever” such an amazing evening… Our President, Sharon Redmond, Principal, Tom Barhorst, and faculty and staff: we appreciate all your support and guidance of our students throughout their time at Ursuline. You are so giving of your time and wisdom. Our friend, mentor, director, multi-tasker, and auction coordinator, Marla Hricovsky: we could not have accomplished this evening without your leadership, kindness, and tireless enthusiasm for Ursuline and the Ultimate Auction. Thank you for the laughter and smiles we shared every time we were together. Our behind-the-scenes organizer, Angela Brock: whose knowledge, experience, and valuable input helped make tonight a success. Our enthusiastic committee chairs and dedicated volunteers: who have worked countless hours to bring “Saturday Night Fever” to life. Your creativity and excitement was contagious and you made this journey so much fun! Our sponsors and donors, and all our Ursuline families and friends: this night is because of you and your commitment to provide an Ursuline education to every young woman. Thank you again for your generosity, your loyalty to Ursuline Academy, and for allowing us to be part of this wonderful community event. Sincerely, Amy and Vince Metzger Lynn and Pete Olmsted 8 URSULINE AUCTION 2016 ULT IMATE AUCTION PAST AUCTION CHAIRS 1983 Judy & Tom Winstel 2003 Jan & Paul Jahnke 1984 Delrose & Jim Eigel 2003 Louise & Bill Stakelin 1985 Mimi & Garrett Frey 2004 Mary & Michael McGraw 1986 Karen & Don Dominizio 2005 Laurie & Jim Funch 1987 Cecilia & Gary Hendren 2005 Jon & Nancy Funch Sauerland '72 1988 Eileen & Timothy Nichols 2006 Elsa & Robert Lindenschmidt 1989 Lois & Joe Wenstrup 2006 Gretchen & Mark Terhar 1990 Jane & Dick Yost 2007 Luann & JF Scherer 1991 Ellen & Garrett Jackson 2008 Allen & Barb O’Neill Backscheider '74 1992 Judy & Elmer Wahl 2008 Emmy & Tony Hobson 1993 Teri & Frank D’Andrea 2009 Allen & Barb O’Neill Backscheider '74 1994 Amelia & Tom Crutcher 2009 Michelle & Rob Morgan 1995 Patti & Dick Alderson 2010 Ellen & Neil Bourgeois 1996 Kathy & Tom Fischer 2010 Shelly & Sean Seitz 1996 Debbie & Tim Hickey 2011 Tom & JoAnne Peck Kennard '83 1997 Hennie & Jim Ryan 2011 Dave & Kathy Dorger Schmitt '81 1998 Kathy & Rick Crall 2012 Bruce & Debbie Conboy Graumlich '83 1998 Judy & Tom Morand 2012 Bill & Ann Winstel Moran '83 1999 Kim & James Hartman 2013 Jenny & Gerry Reilly 1999 Terri & Paul Muething 2013 Jean & Joe Desch 2000 Janet & Tom Turek 2014 Susan & Tom Frooman 2000 Karen & Jim Wendel 2014 Lisa & Mark Redden 2001 Ann & Michael Crotty 2015 Lori & Bill Hogan 2001 John & Susie Keating Lame '76 2015 Ellen & Tony Tulisiak 2002 Adele & Terry Craft EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE 2016 Co-Chairs Janell Bishop Ana Stolz Infantino '90 Vince and Amy Metzger Kathleen Carselle Leah Jonas Gigi Cimmarusti John & Alison McDonnell Pete and Lynn Olmsted Dave & Barb Coyle Amy Mehrle Brian & Carole Foos Cyndi Sprinkle Meyer '91 Carol Garanich Tony & Susan Misleh Peggy Huster Gennantonio '85 Stacey Morton Brenda Groeschen Karen Hackman Olinger '85 Kay Harmeyer Karen Robinson Stacy Hoernschemeyer Jay & Nancy Tennie Kelly Hugenberg Colleen Williams URSULINE AUCTION 2016 9 ULT IMATE AUCTION VOLUNTEERS Rob Adams Terri Enslein Kelsey Koverman Karen Robinson Mendy Adams Ashley Enyeart '09 Lisa Kuprionis Kelly Rudd Kamiikia Alexander Nicki Fendinger Nicki Liesch Carla Rusconi Kerrin Antonsson Sherry Fendinger Paul Lipic Mike Rusconi Michelle Back Margo Flege '76 Sharon Lipic Becky Schaaf Don Back Anne Fogler Pat Longo Mike Schaaf Sonja Barry Brian Foos Emily Lorentz '02 Keith Schaeper Dennis Barry Carole Foos David Lotterer Mary Schirmer Robin Bennett Carol Garanich Kathleen Maciag Jennifer Schraer Janell Bishop Jean Garboden Keith Maciag Kim Schuermann Jaimie Bitzenhofer Tina Gebhardt Essy McCahan Mark Sivik Colleen Black Peggy Gigax Alison McDonnell Kate Smith Jeanine Boutiere '01 Tracey Ginnetti John McDonnell Josh Smith Alison Brands Rice ‘85 Nancy Glaser Stephanie McFarland Sandy Smith Lesley Bride Pat Grimes Todd McFarland Molly Speer Michelle Brink Pamela Grimes Amy McKaig Cyndi Sprinkle Meyer '91 Pam Brinks Brenda Groeschen Amy Mehrle Kristin Stackpole Mike Brown Angela Habel Amy Metzger Ana Stolz Infantino '90 Jim Burke Karen Hackman Olinger '85 Vince Metzger Ursuline Students Karen Burke Amy Hagedorn Amy Meyer Jay Tennie Julie Burwinkel Ellen Hall Karen Meyer Nancy Tennie Diane Butterfield Terry Haney Donna Mihelick Jerry Teuschler Molly Cain Katie Harding Sue Misleh Lynne Teuschler Gretchen Carmosino Jim Harding Tony Misleh Christina Tkacz Kathleen Carselle Kay Harmeyer Stacey Morton Greg Tkacz Jocelyn Chess Maria Henn Chad Murdock Tracy Tooman Julie Cifani Stacey Hoernschmeyer Mary Jo Murphy Annie Toomb Gigi Cimmarusti Lori Hogan Emmet Murphy Cindy Tramontana Greg Cimmarusti
