Tickets on sale for Catholic Charities’ CaSSba ‘Better in the Bluegrass’ fundraiser at Drees Pavilion


Join Catholic Charities for their 31st CaSSba annual fundraiser, “Better in the Bluegrass,” which will be held at the Drees Pavilion at Devou Memorial Overlook, on Sunday, August 26, from 3-7 p.m.

The event will feature classic hors d’oeuvres, plenty of drinks, and delicious desserts.

The event is sponsored by American Mortgage Service Co. and St. Elizabeth Healthcare.

This year’s live auction features the following: the trip of a lifetime for two on a Victoria Falls African Adventure, a “Wheelbarrow of Spirits” full of quality-brand liquor, a Trane Furnace (including installation) provided by Schneller Heating & Air, a Bourbon Barrel Table Set with Bar Stools, and a dinner party for 10 people creatively called “Holy Chow.”

Our traditional silent auction and raffles include the $500 tuition certificates for area high schools, a $1,000 certificate to Xavier University and much more. The event will use electronic bidding for the silent auction. You can sign up at www.Cassba2018.gesture.com. You can start bidding now, during the event, and from anywhere on the day of the event.

“This year we continue with our famous raffle called CaSSba Cash,” says Katie Raverty-Evans, board member and co-chair of the event along with Connie Noll. “The excitement mounts as everyone watches the pot grow knowing the winner takes home 30 percent of the total ticket sales.”

The total take home amount for the winners last year was over $11,000. However, the real excitement for us is the commitment of our donors to assist us in improving the lives of the more than 10,000 people we serve each year here in the Diocese of Covington.”

Joe Danneman, Sports Director of Fox 19, will act as Master of Ceremonies again this year.

“This event is just one way for the community to get involved in supporting the agency’s mission to Extend a Hand and Change a Life,” Catholic Charities Event Coordinator Vicky Bauerle, said.
