SMG 5K Run

Saturday everyone lined up on yet another beautiful morning to take part in the 5K run and walk. It was another great opportunity for the parish to get together and have some fun. Parishoners of all ages participated and had a great time. Can't think of a better way to start of a Saturday.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Church Picnic
Despite the heat, hundreds of folks came out to enjoy the event. The only thing hotter than the pavement was the chili. The cook-off was a success again and John Gastaldello, the "chili rep" reported about 16 or so CASI people participated as well as eight parishoners (a new high).
Over 750 hot dogs were consumed and there always seemed to be a line at the beer tent. Thanks to all of the contributors at the dessert table as usual, no leftovers.

Bingo was well attended in the Gathering Place where parishoners could take a break from the heat. The Split-the-Pot raffle was won by Jerry Fox of Fox Landscaping, a long-time parish member. The DJ kept the party going and featured several young ladies from the SMG musicals from the past 3 years who showed off their talents.


A great time overall, see Sun article for more details.

We are calling all parents, moms, dads, kids, handymen and handywomen, parishioners, the St. Mary’s Men’s Group, CCW, CHRP members, family and friends… to come out for a day of volunteer work on Saturday May 15th.
What better way to give back to your school and/or church by volunteering your time and skill by doing some work around the campus for ½ a day or so on Saturday, May 15th. We are starting at 8am, but please come by when you can, as we can sure use the help.

We promise to be well organized and make good use of your time.

There is one added benefit, besides that feeling of accomplishment to volunteering time during the day on Saturday. Working together to make our campus a better place for all involved with the school & church.

Here are some of the jobs we are looking to do complete on this day.

• Apply Mulch
• Planting
• Painting
• Install shelving

Beverages and snacks will be provided during the day.

Its important to contact one of the following if you can volunteer!
