For her I-Search presentation Molly Cowan stands before<br />
a mural explaining the causes of WWII. What can be seen<br />
are the objects representing the causes. When the lights<br />
were turned out, each cause had an effect which was<br />
displayed by glow in the dark paint.<br />

Winter Wonderland <strong>Ursuline</strong> Ultimate Auction 2009<br />
<strong>Ursuline</strong> <strong>Academy</strong> will be having its 27th Ultimate Auction<br />
on November 21, 2009, in our own Besl Theatre. This year’s<br />
event is guaranteed to be an enjoyable night of silent and live<br />
auction items. <strong>Ursuline</strong>’s Annual Ultimate Auction cannot<br />
survive without the dedicated parents, alumnae, and<br />
friends of <strong>Ursuline</strong>.<br />
It is our honor to announce that this year’s Auction is<br />
co-chaired by couples Barb & Allen Backscheider, parents<br />
of Ali ’10 and Michelle & Rob Morgan, parents of Ashley<br />
’07 & Annie ‘10. Together we are building a talented Steering<br />
Committee who will ensure that Auction 2009 breaks all<br />
records for proceeds. Working on the Auction is a community<br />
building event. Both silent acquisitions and live auction<br />
committees have begun their enormous task of gathering items<br />
that are unique, one-of-a-kind, familiar, and yours to bid on!<br />
There are two ways to help donate to the Ultimate Auction.<br />
Our sponsorship program is one way to support the Auction.<br />
Gifts range from $250 to $5,000. This is an easy way to make<br />
a donation to the Auction. The sponsorship can be a personal<br />
one or through your business, and all sponsors receive an ad in<br />
our handsome catalog. Another way to participate is to donate<br />
an item or any cash donation. All donations help make the<br />
event financially successful.<br />
Your attendance at the Auction guarantees to be a night to<br />
remember. Whether you are an alumna or current parent, we<br />
would love to have you come or bring a group to make up a<br />
table of ten. You can put together a group of alumnae classmates,<br />
friends, neighbors, parents from your daughter’s team, class<br />
or choral group. The Auction is even more fun when you are<br />
with friends. If you’d like to receive an invitation or put a group<br />
together please call Development at 513-791-5794 ext 1218.<br />
Seats are $100 each or $125 each for patron level.<br />
