Letter from the Auction Chairs
Welcome everyone to the 25th annual Madeleine School auction, At Home in the Pacific Northwest. It truly has been our pleasure and honor to act as this year’s auction chairs. One of the first responsibilities of the chairs each year is to decide on an auction theme. We were lucky, because thanks to an excellent suggestion from former Madeleine parent Chris Miller, we hit on the perfect idea right away. We don’t think it’s a coincidence that like so many others in our region, the three of us all came here from somewhere else. In other words, we have made the Pacific Northwest our home by choice, not by chance. To us, the Pacific Northwest is a place filled with promise for anyone with a pioneering spirit and a sense of adventure. There is nowhere else we would rather be. Everyone who is part of the Madeleine community is also here by choice, not by chance. We may all be here under different circumstances and have taken different routes to get here, but we come together to embrace our common hopes and dreams for our children while sustaining and growing the legacy of the Madeleine School. We can’t think of a better place to educate and raise our children At Home in the Pacific Northwest. We sincerely thank all those who have worked tirelessly to help make the auction a success, and ask everyone in attendance to match our volunteers’ dedication with generosity. Have a great time tonight! Tracy Dana Margie Marksthaler Suzie Puetz

Greetings from Father Mike
Dear People of God, What a perfect theme for this year’s Madeleine Benefit Auction: “At Home in the Pacific Northwest.” Of all the beautiful places to see in the world, the Pacific Northwest is one of my favorites. The diversity of ocean beaches, and high desert, majestic mountains and lush valleys, and, of course, our own scenic Columbia Gorge, all touch my spirit in a way other places do not, providing a sense of drawing close to the earth, a sense of connectedness to God’s creation. I’m grateful for your presence with us tonight, and I pray that the Madeleine spirit will touch each of you to always be grateful for your presence here in the Pacific Northwest. May we continue to grow as the Body of Christ, seeking always to walk with justice and peace for all God’s people. St. Mary Magdalene, Pray for us. Father Mike

Greetings from Susan Steele
Dear Friends of The Madeleine School, At Home in the Pacific Northwest - what a great theme for our 2010 auction. I have felt at home in the Northwest for almost 26 years. Setting down roots to raise a family, cultivate friendships, and achieve personal goals was easy in this great environment that we sometimes take for granted. Robert Frost, the noted American poet, once said that “Home is the place where, when you have to go there, they have to take you in.” I would change that a bit to say “The Pacific Northwest is where you want to go and they want to take you in.” This is truly a wonderful place to call home. I am so fortunate to also call the Madeleine community home. My life has been enriched by the families and friendships that surround me in this community. It is almost impossible to count how many lives have been touched and influenced by the Madeleine Parish and School over the course of our 100-year history. Your presence here tonight at our auction is a way of guaranteeing that the Madeleine will be here for another 100 years. Thanks to our legacy, the Madeleine will be home for another generation of children and their families. As we celebrate Oregon food, wine, and culture tonight, please know that I am so thankful for your support of our students, who look to The Madeleine School as their home away from home. Sincerely, Susan Steele

Auction Rules
Liability
The written or verbal bid at this auction constitutes a legal contract to purchase the item. All sales are final and there will be no exchanges unless specified by the donor. In all cases of dispute, the decision by the auction officials is final. The Madeleine Parents Club has attempted to clearly catalog and describe all the items presented at the auction. However, all items are sold in “as is” condition. The school neither warrants or represents, and in no way, will be responsible for accuracy of description, authenticity, authorship, or condition of the items presented. No statement contained in the catalog or made orally at the sale or elsewhere will be deemed such a warranty, representation, or assumption of liability. Your receipt for your auction purchases will show the total amount you paid for your items. This amount, minus the approximate value for the items as established by our valuation committee, equals your net charitable donation. The purpose of establishing this value is to comply with federal law. The Madeleine Parents Club reserves the right to withdraw any items from sale prior to the call for bids.

Auction Rules
Item Removal/Usage
All auction items must be removed from the premises by noon on Sunday, November 7, 2010. Items may be removed only by showing the PAID receipt from the cashier to the security officer when leaving the building.

Courtesy Reminder
As a courtesy to our donors please call by January 15, 2011 to discuss reservations for your group events. Please examine your certificate for the name of the contact person to call. Please note all conditions, restrictions, and expiration dates on your purchases. Unless otherwise noted, services, tickets, certificates, etc., must be used within one year of the auction at a time mutually agreeable to the donor and purchaser. Items cannot be converted to cash. Gratuities are not included in certificates unless specified. Friends have been generous in donating their condominium and homes at the beach or mountains. It is the responsibility of the successful bidder to leave these accommodations in good condition. After the auction, any questions should be directed to the Post-Auction Coordinator Linda Hush-Loomis by email to [email protected].

Scrip
In an effort to reduce cash transactions at the auction, The Madeleine encourages the use of bid number or scrip when paying for items at the auction such as beverages, raffle tickets, and balloons. Scrip will be sold at convenient stations and may be used at face value to pay for auction purchases. Scrip will be used for all drinks. It has no further value following the conclusion of the auction. Guests may freely exchange scrip with each other for whatever is mutually agreeable. No cash refunds are made for unused scrip.

For Your Safety
Prior to the festivities you’re encouraged to select a designated driver from your group. The Madeleine has also made arrangements with Radio Cab to ensure that you arrive home safely. If you think you might like a taxi ride home, please see one of the auction workers. You will be taken home by cab at no cost to you.

Payment
When you check in you will be asked for the method of payment you wish to use for the items you bid on. If you choose to provide your credit card at the beginning of the event you will eliminate the need to see the cashier at the end of the night. Consider that it is much like express checkout at a hotel. Your VISA or MasterCard will be swiped in to the Tofino system during registration. At the end of the night you can review an itemized receipt. Your credit card will only be charged if you are successful at bidding. Cash and checks are also welcome

7. Biryani and Spice and Everything Nice
Indian dinner for 8
You know, lush and exotic India has…nothing in common with the Pacific Northwest. That doesn’t stop us from loving our Indian food here. Curry, naan, biryani - they all add up to “yum” in our book! Luckily, you don’t need to travel to an exotic destination to experience a sumptuous feast fit for a Rajah (that’s ‘king’ to you and me.) See, it’s exotic already, and you’re not even the winning bidder yet! This dinner is guaranteed to awaken the senses; bindis and saris optional.

9. Recycled Fir Coffee Table
Fourth Grade Class Project
We sure do love to be green in the Pacific Northwest – “reduce, reuse, recycle” are often the first words out of babies’ mouths around here (ok, we admit we made that up, but it certainly seems plausible.) This fourth grade class project captures that spirit perfectly. An original, fir beam - removed from the Thompson’s 100-year old Irvington home - has been crafted into a gorgeous, hand-finished, one-of-a-kind coffee table. Included with the table is a book of the fourth graders’ Northwest-themed artwork and photos showing the construction process. Anne and JT Thompson; The Madeleine Fourth Grade Class

13. Escape to Manzanita
Three-night stay in Manzanita
Soak in the sights of the Pacific Ocean as you walk the beach, fly a kite or just settle in with a good book. In other words, it’s the perfect place to get away from it all. The Allred’s lovely 3-bedroom, 2-bath home is large enough to accommodate a group or cozy enough for a romantic getaway. It is only one block from the beach, so it offers easy access for families. Relax, play some games, lounge by the fireplace or take a lazy stroll. Three-night stay; no smoking or pets, please. Mutually agreed upon date; holidays and Spring Break excluded. Janeen and Mark Allred

10. It (Still) Never Rains in California
Five-night stay in Palm Springs
We love the Pacific Northwest as much as the next person, but come February or March, we sometimes start to question that love.

Be the winning bidder on this week-long stay in Palm Springs, and you won’t need your imagination to get some sun! Mutually agreed upon date; holidays and Spring Break excluded Chris and Gregg Miller

20. All Aboard in Astoria
Overnight stay for four
Few places in the Pacific Northwest are as steeped in history as Astoria. Native tribes, Lewis and Clark and the commercial fishing industry have all helped shape Astoria into the charming town it is today. No, we’re not forgetting The Goonies, either. No matter how you look at it, there is plenty of interesting stuff to see and do in Astoria. Check it out for yourself, by being the winning bidder on this one-night stay at the Commodore Hotel.

Then move on to the main event of slow-cooked ribs, grits, beans, biscuits and cobbler for dessert! This dinner offers all of the fun of a barbecue without any of the work.

21. Where the Salmon Are
Guided salmon fishing trip for 4
The Pacific Northwest is known, as much as anything, for its bountiful, beautiful, delicious salmon. And catching them for yourself is one of the signature experiences every true Oregonian must enjoy at least once. Professional fishing guide Chris Vertopoulos knows where the salmon are and he knows how to catch them. Whether you’re an experienced angler or a first-timer, Chris will offer you the fishing experience of a lifetime.

25. Easter Pew
Second-Row Pew at the 9:15 Easter Mass
As Catholics, Easter is our most important celebration of the year and one that no one wants to miss. Wouldn’t be nice to know that you have secured seating for Easter Mass, rather than worrying if you will be there early enough to get all the seats you need?

26. Any Given Day
Kindergarten class project
We’ve all had good days and bad days. Our kindergarteners took this concept to the next level with their class project. The children were asked to picture what kind of days they have had in the past. Responses included “a sunny day” and “a hot lava day” - in other words, they had some adorable and fresh ideas. They then painted those ideas onto a wooden block. The blocks were joined together to create one big and beautiful piece of art. The piece comes with a “legend” identifying the artist of each block and the title of their day. Also included is a booklet with photos of each child during the production process and a written description, complete with actual quotes, of each child’s thoughts. Joe Burgess, artist; The Madeleine Kindergarten Class

23. Hawaiian Dinner
Dinner for 20 people
If your idea of a Hawaiian dinner only includes a luau-style roast pig, fire dancers and tourists, you are missing out.

Then round up 19 of your closest friends and be the winning bidder on this dinner for 20 (yes, we said 20 – they don’t mess around in Hawaii) in NoHo’s on Fremont private Board Room. That’s “board” as in “surfboard,” brah. Aloha! Saturday April 2, 2011 NoHos on Fremont; Julie and Jim Doherty

24. All Are Welcome, Let’s Open the Door
Paddle raise in benefit of a Madeleine School Annual Scholarship
Everyone who has walked through the doors of The Madeleine School knows about its wonderful sense of community and long-standing tradition of excellence in education. We also know there are families within our community for whom the financial cost of a Madeleine education is prohibitive and for whom the doors to Catholic education may be closed. We’d like to change that! The money raised through tonight’s Paddle Raise will be used to help open the door with the establishment of an annual scholarship, to be given to a Madeleine Parish student with a demonstrated financial need. Get ready to raise your paddles high to show that, truly, all are welcome here at The Madeleine School!

27. Pacific Northwest Dinner
Salmon dinner for 8
Whether honoring a new leader, noting a rite of passage for children, or as ritual gatherings showing respect to the spirits and seeking blessings upon a household, from the earliest recorded history, a salmon feast has been how denizens of the Pacific Northwest celebrate. Now, five “elders” of The Madeleine School community will do the same in honor of the high bidder for this delicious package! Fresh Northwest salmon, seasonal sides, and a Laskowski dessert will be prepared for you and your tribe of 8 people.
