We hope you'll join us as the Roncalli Pierside Auction sets sail for its 37th year!

Exciting news! ... Roncalli Catholic Schools is happy to announce the 37th Annual Roncalli Pierside Auction will return in April. The auction will be held online with a special virtual event and even more surprises this year!

“Due to ongoing concerns and safety measures surrounding the pandemic, we will again be hosting the Roncalli Pierside Auction as an online and virtual event. When it is safe to do so, we will again return to holding the auction as an in-person event in our beloved gym,” said Candice Giesen, director of development for Roncalli Catholic Schools, of the auction. “More than 250 silent and premium auction items are expected to be included so get ready to bid and don’t forget about the auto bid feature! We are grateful to our sponsors and the community for their support again this year. Last year was hugely successful with our record-breaking goal and we are looking forward to coming back with brand-new items.”

The Roncalli Pierside Auction provides funding for Roncalli primarily in the area of tuition assistance. About 65 percent of Roncalli families are on some kind of tuition assistance.

More details will be released in the coming weeks regarding the online auction site and registration for bidding. Make sure to also watch our Facebook page for details!
