Hard to believe this is already our sixth parish auction here at St. Agnes! Your support and interest in this event are much, much appreciated and very, very helpful. Besides, the auction gives us an excuse to celebrate in the midst of the “winter blahs!” The proceeds from the 2011 auction will help with four projects: 1) the purchasing of more unit ventilators for the school building to continue improving the A/C ventilation, 2) the purchase of desks for our 7th/8th grade classes, 3) the purchase of science kits for kindergarten through the sixth grades of our school, and 4) the upgrading of the pre-K through 2nd grades’ playground area and equipment on the north side of our school. Your generosity will enable our parish to carry out these projects. Much work goes on behind the scenes of make our auction a success. Blessings to all who have shared their time and energy in making it “the event!” that it is! Gratefully in Christ, Fr. Bob Reverend Robert J. Jallas Pastor 2 Sr. Joan Sr. Joan Sorge, O.P. Principal T H A N K Y O U We would like to sincerely thank the many committee members, volunteers, businesses, advertisers, corporate and individual sponsors for helping to make our 6th annual parish-wide auction a success. This event is not just about strengthening our parish and school financially – it’s about coming together as a community and enjoying one another’s fellowship. We apologize in advance if any person or business was inadvertently left off one of these lists.

THANK YOU Full Deck - Taste of Springfield The Auction Committee decided to develop the new Full Deck Taste of Springfield as their donation to the Auction.

All items are sold “as is” and are subject to conditions and terms stipulated by the donor. Please inspect an item and specifications before bidding. The dollar values are estimates provided by the donor and are not guaranteed by the auction committee for tax purposes. By your purchase of an auction ticket and bid number, you waive any claims for liability against St. Agnes Parish/School for products or services received. No exchanges, substitutions or refunds will be honored by the auction committee. Bidders must be 21 years of age to purchase any item containing alcohol. Checkout Procedures To be eligible to bid, you must have a bid number. You will be responsible for all purchases made on your bid number. All group purchases must be paid for under one bid number. Prior to retrieving your (successfully bid on) Live or Silent Auction item, you must pay for that item. Cash, debit cards, personal checks, Visa and Mastercard are all accepted. Auction officials will be checking receipts, and your bid number against the item number before you may take the item. Please have your bid number with you. The cashier’s booth is located in the school office at the event entrance. Ask For “Express Pay” If you plan to use a credit or debit card (Visa or Mastercard accepted) to pay for your purchases, your card can be swiped at the check-in table when you arrive, so you can avoid long lines at the end of the event. All credit card information is securely stored in our terminals. After your credit/debit card is swiped, your bidder number is entered. From this point on – the credit card data is linked to your bidder number. You will be required to sign a $0.00 balance receipt (you will receive a copy). During the event, you may use your bidder number for the Live and Silent Auctions as well as other activities such as purchasing chances on The Barrel of Booze and other raffles. At the end of the event, simply pick up the purchases you successfully bid upon, by-pass the cashier and we will mail you a detailed receipt listing of your purchases for the evening. In the event that you need to pick up gift cards/certificates or if you’d like a receipt before leaving, a special check-out line reserved just for those using “Express Pay” will be available. Item Pick-Up Once you have a paid receipt you may pick up your item. (“Express Pay” recipients will have their bid number with an Express Pay logo and also their pre-pay receipt for proof.) All items purchased should be taken home this evening. St. Agnes School/Parish is not responsible for items lost or forgotten (or, heaven forbid, stolen). If you require assistance with removal of an item, please contact a member of the auction committee. 7 P L A Y T O W I N - R A F F L E S Tuition Raffle Tickets are $10 each.Winner has choice to receive either paid tuition for one student at St. Agnes OR the equivalent amount paid toward the tuition of one student at Sacred Heart-Griffin for the 2011-2012 school year (value $2,500.00 / may not be redeemed for cash/and is paid directly to the school).

Blessed Sacrament Cathedral Christ the King Little Flower St. Agnes St. Aloysius St. Joseph Sacred Heart-Griffin 9 T H A N K Y O U a note from your Auction Chairs We indeed are blessed…fortunate to be involved in the St. Agnes Parish community and very lucky to have had the support and friendship of so many wonderful volunteers in planning this year’s Auction. Volunteer-driven efforts, especially as extensive as this, are never easy. Thanks especially to the past chairs of the Auction, who remain engaged and committed, the challenge of coordinating the event was made far more manageable. Thank you also to our entire team. It obviously goes without saying that we couldn’t have done this alone. Thanks for stepping up, jumping in, drinking the proverbial Kool-aid, etc. A special thanks to our families who have been eating take-out every night for a month while we do “auction stuff”. A home-cooked meal is on the horizon (unless we win the Full Deck Raffle!) As mentioned elsewhere in the book, we’re also very appreciative of our sponsors, donors, advertisers, teachers, staff, the Holy Name Society, event volunteers, student helpers, bidders, buyers, family and friends. It is the cumulative support of this entire network that produces the remarkable results we witness year after year here at St. Agnes. Our students are the real beneficiaries of your goodwill and generosity. Sure, there is a measurable value to our Parishioners and School Families in the dollars and cents spent on projects. Enhancements directly resulting from the Auction also can be judged in terms of improved numbers in the classroom, whether grades, test scores or other academic achievements. However, it’s the immeasurable rewards that most benefit our greater community and specifically our students. The fellowship that this effort cultivates, the confidence it instills, the pride it projects….those are intangible gifts enjoyed by our students who are the heart and soul of our Parish. Honestly, the list of what we’ve been able to accomplish on their behalf -- thanks to your kindness and charity -- continues to be very humbling to everyone who’s ever chaired the Auction. A new Pre-School, a new Science Lab, a new Computer SMART Lab, new SMART Connect, new Parish and School websites, etc., have all resulted from your overwhelming support. It is this remarkable list of real results as well as the intangible rewards realized by everyone involved that makes all of our hard work, time spent, stress, and yes, even headaches, well worth it. It’s also what brings us all back year after year to assist with the planning effort. We hope you enjoy tonight’s event. Thanks again from all of us for making your own contributions -- big or small, no matter the level of your involvement or degree of participation -to ensure our continued success. Jane Winders & Kathy Rubinkowski 2011 St. Agnes Auction Co-Chairs This full page ad paid for by Jane Winders & Kathy Rubinkowski 10 B I D O F T E N , B I D H I G H - L I V E A U C T I O N I T E M S Live Auction Rules The live auction will begin at 7:00 p.m. and will continue (with breaks) throughout the evening. Master of ceremonies will set the minimum bid for each item. Raise your bid number to bid on an item. The auctioneer will acknowledge you. Once the highest bid has been determined, an auction official will ask the winning bidder to sign an acknowledgement form. The acknowledgement form confirms the bidder number, bidder name and dollar amount. The auction committee reserves the right to repeat a sale in case of dispute. Officials will deliver a copy of the acknowledgement form to the cashier. Items may be paid for and collected immediately following the closing of each live auction interval. Under no circumstances will we split checks. What do we mean? We will not split the cost of an item between 2, 3 or more bidders so that each bidder only pays his/her share of the total cost of an item. This isn’t a new rule, it’s been in print every year of the auction, but we’re committed to actually enforcing it this year. We understand people go in together to share certain items like big dinners or sporting events. That’s wonderful, and we certainly have no problem with it. However, we will only accept one payment from a single bidder for the total cost of the item (whether by cash, check or credit card). It is an accounting nightmare to do otherwise, both from an organizational and logistical standpoint. We are very fortunate to have an effective software program to facilitate our bookkeeping processes; however, splitting the total cost of one item between numerous buyers cannot be accommodated by the software program. We don’t expect our volunteers to have to wrestle with this either. It’s been the rule every year, but there always seems to be an exception made before the evening is over. This is simply a heads up that no such exception will be made this year, so please make sure your buying group knows in advance which one of you will be putting the total cost of a shared item on your invoice. Thank you in advance for your understanding and cooperation. Please Note: All donor values are estimates and in many instances may actually be worth more than what is stated.

Most notably, she's served as a courtroom artist for many famous cases including the Disbarment of Vice President Agnew and the criminal trials of Mike Tyson, R Kelly, John Wayne Gacy, Michael Jackson and most recently Rod Blagojevich. These sketches are one-of-a-kind pieces of art and without cameras in the courtroom are often the only visuals we have from inside these famous trials. This is your unique chance to own one of her rare originals, a sketch from inside the first trial of Illinois' disgraced ex-governor featuring Blago himself and his former chief of staff. This particular sketch also includes some members of the jury. Could one of them be the lone hold-out who temporarily delayed Blago's trip to prison? The sketch, documenting an important albeit tragic moment in Illinois history, is signed by Sadock and is sure to escalate exponentially in value. Donor: Joe & Katy Khayyat Donor Value: Priceless!

Lumber Donor Value: $1,725.00 Fancy Feet, Sloppy Sig After leading Illinois to the Rose Bowl after the '07-'08 season, Rashard Mendenhall was selected in the first round of the '08 NFL Draft by the Pittsburgh Steelers After sitting out most of his rookie year with a fractured shoulder sustained in the team's fourth game, Mendenhall has become the running back the Steelers had hoped when they took him with the 23rd pick. At Illinois, he rushed for more than 2,500 yards before leaving after his junior year. His quick footwork on the pro field and his penchant for reliably gaining yards for Pittsburgh have made him a top back on fantasy league rosters. This is an authentic Reebok 'On the Field' black home jersey signed by Rashard and is #34 of only 34 jerseys. He has added the rare inscription "2008 #1 pick". Unfortunately, as is this case with every Mendenhall signature, Rashard's scribbled name isn't nearly as pretty as his moves on the field or the jersey itself. However, this is the real deal and was available only through Mendenhall's exclusive sports memorabilia agent. You'll never see another one of these!

We need to replace all the desks in 3 classrooms this year. For only $150 each, you can ensure our students hit the jackpot when they come back next fall! Replacing the desks is this year’s Special Auction Project. In past years, you’ve been generous in helping us raise the additional money necessary for additional SMART™ Boards in every classroom. This year we need your help in providing something a bit more basic. However, rather than holding up the auction to ask for as many extra donations as possible, we’re giving you a chance all night long to sponsor a desk…or two…ten…or even a whole classroom’s worth…just $150 each. If you’re one of the ones a wearing flashing Jackpot necklace tonight -- signifying you’ve made your contribution toward our students’ classroom needs -- everyone will know you’re All In For Education!

In high school, he won 2 state championships and was rated by scouts as the top point guard prospect in the country after graduation. He played for the University of Memphis Tigers and reached the NCAA national championship game in 2008. Shortly after, Rose declared for the '08 NBA Draft and was selected as the 1st overall pick by his hometown Chicago Bulls. In his first year of professional basketball, Rose was voted the Rookie of the Year and was selected to the All-Rookie Team. In only his 2nd season, Rose was selected as an All-Star for the first time for the 2010 NBA All-Star Game. He was also named a starter for the U.S. Team at the 2010 FIBA World Championships. This isn't just a Rose-signed Bulls jersey, however. This is an extremely rare, special St. Patrick's Day green Bulls jersey signed by Derrick Rose. The red Bulls head logo pops off the green fabric just above Rose's name on the back. Donor: St. Agnes Auction Committee Donor Value: Priceless! The Ultimate Cardinals Collection Wow, what a basket!

The Holy Name Society here at St. Agnes has donated the refreshments to the Auction every year, having done so since our first event in 2006? Not only have they donated the actual products we’re enjoying, but they also have supplied the manpower to serve it every year. They’ve made the arrangements, done the prep work and do their own tear down and clean up. Thanks to Holy Name’s generous support of the Auction, we’ve been able to raise even more money for the Parish and School. And because they provide the bartenders, the Auction Committee can concentrate on other duties and responsibilities. Obviously they are a very important, very valued partner to us, and we can’t thank them enough for their dedication and commitment to this effort specifically or to the Parish and School. WHAT IS THE HOLY NAME SOCIETY? The St. Agnes Holy Name Society is a membership organization. All men, over 18 years of age, of the Parish are considered members. The annual dues are only $5. The Holy Name Society historically has planned and hosted two major annual fundraisers – the Chilli Supper and the Chicken Dinner. They also support all Parish events, including dances, the annual summer picnic and of course, the auction. Every year, they bring in old St. Nick for Breakfast with Santa. In addition, the Holy Name Society is available for special projects at the special request of Father or the School. The club has 10 meetings per year, including the Night of Recollection in March and the Men’s Cookout in June. HOW CAN YOU GET INVOLVED? All men, 18 years of age or older, are invited to participate in the Holy Name Society. Holy Name would love to have you join them for fellowship and fun. If you have more questions or want to get involved, just talk to one of the following members of the St. Agnes Holy Name Society (many of whom just happen to be our bartenders this evening): Larry Johnson, Mike Noonan, Pete Steward, Greg Langdon, Mark Selvaggio, Louis Matsko, Greg Goetz, Andy Lascody and Jim Ketchum THANKS AGAIN FOR ALL YOU DO SPECIFICALLY FOR THE AUCTION…AND ALSO FOR THE PARISH AND SCHOOL THROUGHOUT THE YEAR!! 24 B I D L-42 L-43 L-44 L-45 L-46 L-47 L-48 L-49 O F T E N , B I D H I G H - L I V E A U C T I O N I T E M S Andy Warhol Comes to 5A Each student is uniquely captured in a Warhol-esque fashion.

The Kids Auction was started last year to give our students the opportunity to learn about, participate in and enjoy for themselves the auction process. No money is required to participate. The kids earn tickets for completing extra assignments, good deeds, participating in Peacebuilders, etc. They then use these tickets to "bid on" the many items available to them...deciding whether to place most or all of their tickets in the raffle box for the one item they want the most, or spreading their chances of winning by placing their tickets in the raffle boxes of several or many items. Each student can determine his/her own "bidding" strategy. A complete list of all the lucky winners and the auction items they won will be included in the Addendum available the night of the Auction. On behalf of our students, thanks again for supporting this special auction effort! 739 S. 5th Street, Suite 200 • Springfield, IL 62703 Cell: 217.652.3335 • Home: 217.793.1427 Fax: 217.522.5906 • tsmarjesse@hotmail.com 30 Tony Smarjesse Realtor Parishioner Shhhhhhhhhh... there’s only 100 tickets available and they’re only $25 each…so if you’re one of the lucky ones who had so much fun at last year’s Auction Party, don’t hesitate or you may just miss out!

But when I was here, coach pounded it in; made sure it didn't leave. It was never about me, it was always about the team.” Jerome Bettis about his former coach Lou Holtz Congratulations to our players from St. Agnes School and PSR Program – who are learning how to play hard and practice hard... to always play and practice with heart and desire… to be motivated, disciplined young men who are part of a greater team – including (in alphabetical order, with uniform #): 35 – Tristan Blair 13 – Tim Brenneisen 27 – McGwire Clem 88 – Tommy Drake 11 – Matt Eberding 47 – Alex Khayyat 41 – Sharky Martin 68 – Michael Ryan 20 – Keith Steele 32 – Matt Urbas “Ability is what you're capable of doing. Motivation determines what you do. Attitude determines how well you do it.” Lou Holtz 32 P L AY Y O U R B E S T H A N D - S I L E N T A U C T I O N I T E M S Silent Auction Rules The bidding will begin at 6:00 p.m. (5:30pm for Early Bird guests). All items in the Silent Auction will have bid sheets affixed to the table near the item. To bid on an item you must include your BID NUMBER and DOLLAR AMOUNT. Successful bidders must meet or exceed the stated minimum raise level. Any bid not increasing by the stated minimum raise level will be disqualified. All items will be sold to the highest bidder who bids correctly. The closing bid will be highlighted by an auction official and declared the winning bid. Bid sheets will be collected and delivered to the cashier by an auction official. If a dispute between two bidders ensues - for which there appears no reasonable resolution after careful consideration of any available facts - the auction chairs reserve the right to resort to one of the following methods for determining a winner: a coin flip or a random card drawing. Bidders, by participating in the auction and placing bids, expressly agree to abide by these rules. All disputes will be resolved on the night of the auction. Decisions of the auction chairs are final. HOW DOES THE “BUY IT NOW” FEATURE WORK? On some auction items – chosen randomly – we have added a “Buy It Now” feature. “Buy It Now” works exactly as it sounds. If you choose to bid the “Buy It Now” amount, you win the item right then, and the auction for that item ends immediately. It is a way to buy something that you know you really want without having to participate in a protracted bidding process. However, even if an item includes a “But It Now” element, bidders do NOT have to use the “Buy It Now” feature to bid on the item if they’d rather take their chances on the outcome of the bidding process. But if in the meantime someone else uses the “Buy It Now” feature, even though you’ve been bidding on the item against them or others, the auction ends immediately and the bidder who just used the “Buy It Now” feature instantly is the winner of the item. The items where the “Buy It Now” feature has been added will be clearly marked for your convenience. If you use the “Buy It Now” feature to purchase an item, please notify a room monitor ASAP so they can take the appropriate action. Please do not remove the bid sheets or the auction item without permission from the room monitor. S-1 S-2 Silent Items "O’ Christmas Tree" You will be ready for Christmas this year with your 7 ft.

Thrill of Victory - Agony of Defeat The Giants had entered the bottom of the ninth down 4-1. Before Thomson came to bat with one out, the Giants had scored a run to make it 4-2 and had runners at second and third. Dodgers' manager Charlie Dressen brought in Ralph Branca to face Thomson. After taking the first pitch for a strike, Thomson pulled back, took a big cut and connected on the next delivery, a fastball that was high and inside. The ball was smashed down the left field line just above the 315-foot sign and landed five rows deep in the stands. Thomson's home run gave the Giants a 5-4 victory over their biggest rival and a trip to the World Series. Bobby Thomson and Ralph Branca have each signed this rare 8x10 black & white image portraying both teams' reactions after Thomson crossed home plate. Certified by Steiner Sports.

However, long before those honors, Frazier already had made his mark as one of the premier collegiate basketball players in the country. Playing for Southern Illinois University, where he had accepted an offer to play basketball rather than accept scholarship offers to play football from many other universities, Frazier became a two-time All-American for the Salukis. In 1967, with Frazier at point guard, SIU won the National Invitational Tournament beating Marquette, a performance for which Frazier was named tourney MVP. He was the 5th overall pick by the New York Knicks in that year's draft where he would go on to be a 7-time NBA All Star and an integral part of the Knicks' 70 and '73 NBA Championship teams. This is an outstanding 8x10 signed/framed action shot of Clyde the Glide, certified by Steiner Sports. Donor: St. Agnes Auction Committee Donor Value: Priceless! Birds First, but the Phillies Forever Nicknamed "Lefty", Steve Carlton pitched from 1965-1988 for six different teams in his career, but it is his time with the Phillies where he received his greatest acclaim as a professional and won 4 Cy Young Awards. Carlton has the second most lifetime strikeouts for a lefty pitcher and the second most lifetime wins for a lefty. He was inducted into Cooperstown in 1994. In perhaps the worst trade in Cardinals' history, Carlton was traded to the Phillies in 1972 for a pitcher named Rick Wise. He was traded be cause of a contract dispute; however, after his MLB rookie debut for the Cardinals in '65, he quickly be came a dominant pitcher and reached the World Series in '67 and '68. He experienced similar success with Philadelphia, who honored Carlton by retiring his number 32 and constructing a statue of Lefty outside their stadium. This is a great signed/framed 8x10 of Carlton, certified by Steiner and MLB. Donor: St. Agnes Auction Committee Donor Value: Priceless!

He also pitched for the Cubs from 2005-2008. At the time of this writing, Howry is a free agent. He was originally drafted by the Giants, but was one of six prospects traded to the White Sox in the infamous White Flag Trade, in which Jerry Reinsdorf sent 3 quality major league pitchers to San Fran at the trade deadline. The White Sox were still in contention so this controversial move was seen as a premature surrender even though they received 6 great prospects in return.

S-221 From Bagging Groceries to Bagging a Bust at Canton Kurt Warner, who would go on to be considered the best undrafted player of all time following his 12year career, is one of the greatest rags-to-riches stories in NFL history. Having been undrafted, Warner was working at a local grocery store in Iowa at $5.50/hr., when he decided to take a shot at the Arena Football League. After two years of success on the Iowa Barnstormers, he finally was signed by an NFL club, but still was considered only a 2nd or 3rd string QB. Then, before the '99 season, the Rams' new starting QB Trent Green tore his ACL in a preseason game. Warner was elevated to starter and the rest is history. He went on to win 2 NFL MVP awards in 1999 and 2001, as well as the Super Bowl MVP in Super Bowl XXXIV. He also led the '08 Arizona Cardinals to Super Bowl XLIII (the franchise's firstever SB berth), and owns the 3 highest single-game passing yardage totals in Super Bowl history. Warner is ranked among the top QB's all-time in career passing ratings and is a lock for the Pro Football Hall of Fame in Canton, OH. This very rare Rams jersey, certified by Mounted Memories, features a large signature and is embroidered with Warner's statistics. Donor: St. Agnes Auction Committee Donor Value: Priceless!

Recognizing this, Sports Illustrated named Phelps the Sportsman of the Year in '08.
