Live Auction Under the Stars to be fully remote this year
Following guidance from public health officials, our Live Auction will now be held remotely on Saturday, May 16th.
As you know, most events around the world continue to be affected by the COVID-19 pandemic. It is unlikely we will be able to gather in person on June 13 as planned, so we’ve made the difficult decision to go fully remote and to move the date of this event to May 16.
The FA Auction is our most important fundraising initiative of the year, supporting everything we do. Your participation is key!
Please save the date, and join us via Zoom on Saturday, May 16 from 7 to 8:30 pm. As you view and bid on our live auction items and Fund-Our-Mission opportunities, you will be entertained by vignettes of school life, glimpse the joys and absurdities of remote classes, and hear performances from our amazing students. There might even be a few surprises thrown into the mix. It will be a celebration of all things FA hosted by Head of School Matt Green.
If you have already purchased tickets to the June 13 event, you will receive an email from Falmouth Academy with information on donating or refunding your tickets. Your login information enabling you to bid online has already been sent to you via email (please let David know if you did not receive a login). Online bidding for the Live Auction and Fund-Our-Mission opens at 10 am on May 1 and closes at 8 pm on May 16.
Thank you for your support and patience as we reconfigure this event in response to this rapidly changing situation. If you have any questions regarding the Auction and associated scheduling changes, please contact David Gallagher at dgallagher@falmouthacademy.org.
Sincerely,
Pamela Hinkle
Director of Development
