Celebration

Celebration is an annual event that combines fellowship and fundraising for CHCA. The evening includes silent auction, raffles, seated dinner and a live auction. Guests use mobile bidding to participate in the auction. It’s easy, fun and all you need is your phone!

The funds raised support CHCA’s operating budget for such things as teacher salaries and benefits, curriculum tools for the classrooms, and tuition assistance.

A wide variety of items ranging from practical to extravagant! Historically we have offered restaurant gift cards, grills, puppies, opportunities to go bowling with a teacher, tickets to Walt Disney World, to name just a few!

We are glad you asked!

It’s a wonderful way to connect with friends new and old who all have a heart for CHCA.

We need help with all aspects of this event, from early planning and auction item procurement to decorating and tear down. Contact us to get involved or learn more.

The success of the event relies heavily on the quality and variety of items donated. It may be something you can provide personally but more often it’s asking a business that you frequent. We benefit from auctioning the item but the business gets great exposure in the CHCA community.

Celebration is intended to be an elegant night out, so if you are looking for a reason to get dressed up, this is it! Celebration 2018 is Black Tie optional so feel free to bust out the tux and long gown. However, semi formal attire is very appropriate as well. Tuxedos, gowns, cocktails dresses, suits or whatever you are comfortable wearing is welcome.

You can do it or we can do it!

We encourage you to gather a table (seating for ten or twelve). You can list with whom you would like to be seated on the back of the RSVP card or a group name on your on-line registration.

If you'd like us to handle it we will attempt to seat you with others who have children of similar age or involved in similar activities.

While the CHCA Development Office has the lead organizational responsibility for Celebration, it is the efforts of the entire CHCA community that make the event a success. CHCA parents, faculty, staff, sponsors and local businesses all play important roles in creating an evening that generate fellowship and funds.
