Dear Friends, 

As Horton might have said to a Who: 

… The 29 th of October, 

Glad you saved the date 

Gladhanders will come early 

Glad hearts will stay late… 

Having just recently encountered once again the strong faith and youthful vitality of the 

Grand Traverse Area Catholic Schools community at the all systems Mass, I am thrilled to 

learn that there are so many of you who will be demonstrating your support for those 

excellent Christ-centered schools by participating in the 29 th annual Gladhander, Seuss on 

the Loose. 

I am convinced that it is because of your generosity and the efforts of the school’s 

many supporters that the tradition of excellence that has long distinguished our Catholic 

Schools in Traverse City will continue. It is your commitment that makes it concretely 

possible for the schools to meet the challenge of providing a first-rate education that is 

thoroughly permeated with a Catholic world-view. 

I am increasingly confident that the whole Diocese is enriched by the wonderful work 

that is undertaken in our Catholic schools. As we celebrate our 40 th anniversary as a 

Diocese, we see graduates of our schools in positions of responsibility throughout our 

parishes and institutions, strengthening our families and navigating our local Church through 

the challenges of this age. On behalf of the Diocese of Gaylord, I thank you for your inspiring 

support of this important apostolate. May the Lord bless you in abundance for your 

perseverance and generosity. 

Sincerely in Christ, 

Most Rev. Bernard A. Hebda 

Bishop of Gaylord

MESSAGE FROM OUR PRESIDENT 


FROM THE PRESIDENT 

OF THE GRAND TRAVERSE AREA CATHOLIC SCHOOLS 

Dear Friends, 

Each year I am more and more impressed with Grand Traverse Area Catholic Schools. 

And more and more I hear parents and others refer to our great school system as a “family.” 

That is certainly music to our ears! 

Just recently, in meeting with a new family in St. Patrick parish, I was heartened to hear the 

mother describe in glowing terms how her son, a transfer student, was welcomed at our high 

school. That does not just happen by itself. It is an atmosphere we promote each day, 

and a reflection of He who gives us our purpose. 

We are truly a family, a home of welcome. 

We help parents in the crucial task of forming their children as disciples and citizens. 

We also form the leaders of our future, and the advocates for those who are less fortunate. 

Your generosity helps make that possible. You are a key player in this great work we share. 

Enjoy the fun and fellowship of this festive evening, and be generous. The resources you 

provide help the teachers and administrators of GTACS to continue to pursue the path of 

excellence on which they travel. They are extremely hard working and dedicated, as are the 

students they teach. Give them the tools that they need! 

With Every Prayer and Good Wish for You, 

Rev. Don Geyman 

President of the Grand Traverse Area Catholic Schools

SUPERINTENDENT’S MESSAGE 


FROM THE SUPERINTENDENT 

OF THE GRAND TRAVERSE AREA CATHOLIC SCHOOLS 

October 29, 2011 

Dear Friends of the Grand Traverse Area Catholic Schools, 

This event, though just one weekend in length, is the result of countless people working 

together, year-round, toward a common goal: to make a Catholic education more affordable 

for everyone who wants one. 

The sacrifice is worth it because education is worth it -- and because there is no substitute for a 

Catholic education and its atmosphere of faith, prayer, tradition and virtue. The presence of our 

school system in northern Michigan pays big dividends: Our graduates are well-prepared for 

higher education, our young adults are searching for enduring marriages and united families, 

and our future leaders are humble and compassionate. 

Tonight, we celebrate 29 years of successful Gladhander auctions. We honor those who have 

come before us, and we strive to be a blessing to those who will come after us. We salute the 

creative genius of Dr. Seuss and all of the young imaginations sparked by his great gifts. Most 

of all, though, we welcome you to a night of festive merriment, fine food and fellowship. 

Thank you for your support of Gladhander. 

Out of all the things you could do, we’re happy, it’s true...that we can feast and have a fine time 

with you. 

Sincerely yours in Christ, 

Michael R. Buell 

Superintendent

CHAIRPERSON’S MESSAGE 


FROM THE CO-CHAIRS 

OF GLADHANDER 2011 

October 2011 

For each of the past 29 years during one late October weekend, teams of people – parents, 

students and community volunteers – have transformed an ordinary Catholic school gym into 

something altogether unrecognizable. 

It’s a monstrous effort, but to the hundreds of volunteers who help pull it off, not to mention the 

thousands of students and alumni whose lives have been shaped by a Christ-centered education, 

Gladhander has become an indelible part of the unique culture and tradition of the Grand Traverse 

Area Catholic Schools. 

The Gladhander gala – its hundreds of auction and raffle items, gourmet food, imaginative decorations, 

and now, live entertainment – have made it not only one of northern Michigan’s premier events, but 

also helped to shape the unique identity of our Catholic Schools. The energy, creativity, and teamwork 

displayed by the hundreds of volunteers who recreate this superb event every year embody everything 

that makes this place so special – and so deserving of your support. 

We hope you enjoy this magical evening, and remember, every time you raise your paddle to bid, 

purchase a raffle ticket, or try your luck at the Treasure Chest or Winners Choice, you’re helping 

maintain a unique tradition that, for nearly three decades, has enriched lives by making the academic 

and moral excellence of a Catholic education more affordable and accessible for so many. 

Sincerely, 

Debbie and Bill Marsh, Jr. 

Co-Chairs

SCHOLARSHIP AUCTION 



The Scholarship Auction has been a wonderful part of the Gladhander tradition for a number of years. 

The Scholarship Auction allows our guests to contribute to the GTACS tuition assistance fund. 

Participation in the Scholarship Auction will allow GTACS to maintain its socioeconomic diversity. We want 

to provide a Catholic education to all families who are willing to enter into a partnership, regardless of 

income. During the 2010-2011 school year, the tuition assistance fund granted more than $600,000 in 

scholarships. Nearly one in three GTACS students receives some level of financial assistance. 

At Gladhander 2010, the Scholarship Auction at Gladhander raised more than $50,000. Can you help 

increase this amount to $100,000 during 2011? 

SCHOLARSHIP AUCTION RULES 

1) The bidding for the Scholarship Auction has no limit! Help the auctioneer to start the bidding 

at a high level. Will you consider a $50,000 bid? How about a $25,000 bid? 

2) The auctioneer will proceed downward in the various increments - $10,000; $8,000; $6,000; 

$5,000; $4,000; $3,000; $2,000; $1,000; $500; $250; $100 

3) As the auctioneer announces the level you are comfortable with, please raise your paddle. 

A spotter will take your paddle number and bid amount, adding this to your final bill. 

4) Make those paddles move! 

5) If you miss the opportunity to make a bid during the auction time or prefer 

to make a commitment privately, there will be an opportunity to support the 

scholarship fund during the check-out process. 

Will you bid high enough to join the growing 

membership in the St. Ambrose Society? 

The St. Ambrose Society was formed to honor those 

donors who make a major annual commitment to GTACS. 

A major annual commitment is defined as $2,500 or greater 

for any purpose.Since scholarship funding is so critical 

to the health and vitality of GTACS, many gifts to the St. 

Ambrose Society have a scholarship purpose. 

Ask about opportunities to establish a family or 

memorial scholarship fund. Here are a few examples 

of recently established scholarship funds: 

David J. Harrigan 

“Centerfield” Memorial 

Scholarship 

Terri Bridges Price 

Memorial Scholarship 

Waldo Keating 

Memorial Scholarship 

Jenkins Group

GLADHANDER HISTORY 


GLADHANDER HISTORY 

Like many inventions, the first Gladhander Auction was born of necessity. Times were lean in 1983 and the school faced a 

significant budget shortfall. A group of concerned people – parents, educators, administrators, alumni and friends – came 

together to solve the problem. They decided to stage an auction to be held at the only venue they could afford, the school itself. 

They worked. It worked. And Gladhander has now been “coming together” for 29 years. We salute all those who have served in 

various capacities at Gladhander events through the years, and in particular, we honor those who said “yes” to the demanding 

role of chairing this fine fundraiser. Here’s to another 29 years of inspiring generosity.

impact future generations.

to recognize those alumni and friends who have 

shown generosity and foresight by making planned 

or deferred gifts to the Grand Traverse Area 

Catholic Schools. Members of the 1877 Legacy 

Society have made outright bequests in their 

wills, or have made other planned gifts such as life 

insurance, real estate, or retirement assets. 

Members who have chosen to make such gifts 

often find that they also provide significant tax and 

financial benefits (for specific tax or legal advice, 

please consult an attorney or accountant).
