San Antonio Pipes and Drums kicked off the night, followed by the Inishfree School of Irish Dancing, which included three of Mike and Bernie O'Grady's grandchildren. The evening included amazing artwork by the students of St. Pius in the silent auction and generous donations from our community leaders in the form of high-spirited bidding during the live auction. You could feel the excitement in the Family Center as winners were drawn from the Gold Mystery Boxes, Golf Ball Pyramid, and Card Game, leading to tense moments when the $20,000 winning raffle ticket was drawn! Thank you to all of those who donated to this year's Gala. The PULSE of St. Pius X The San Antonio Pipes and Drums provided a festive atmosphere for the evening's events. A wonderful crowd gathered for the Gala, raising funds that will propel St. Pius X in the coming year. PreK-3 students explain that "G" is for Grotto.
