Sold! Auction Recap

Our CKS community spent Saturday night in Hollywood, and the stars were everywhere! The biggest question, like most major Hollywood functions, was "What are you wearing?" While most people opted for black-tie formal attire, some of our CKS stars really stood out and created a buzz. In case you couldn't make it to Auction, here are the top fashion recaps:

• It's not an A-list event without pop stars. Thanks to James and Gianni O'Connor we saw Katy Perry and her Super Bowl shark. 

• You never know if Tom Cruise will make it to an event, but he came out to support our Catholic school, along with Kelly McGillis, when Antonio and Christine Castellvi came rocking the flight suit and bomber jacket as Maverick and Charlie from Top Gun. 

• I knew John Travolta lived in Florida, but I never thought I would see him at Christ the King, especially with Uma Thurman. Even Quentin Tarntino would have been impressed with how Jay and Donna Anthony transformed into Vincent Vega and Mia Wallace from Pulp Fiction. 

• We were all shocked to find out that Fr. Len was not only our pastor but also "The One." Dressed like Keanu Reeves from The Matrix, Father Lenderson battled Agent Santhouse to start the Live Auction. 

• No celebrity party is complete without the paparazzi. The Williams and O'Brien families came with inflatable cameras and TMZ shirts (pictures of Brian Housel on the dance floor should be hitting the internet any moment). 

Thank you to Maggie Robinson and Aadonia de le Torre, our Auction co-chairs, and their committee for putting together an entertaining evening; thank you to my co-auctioneer, T-Michael Boyle, for helping double the amount of money raised in the Live Auction from last year; and finally, thank you CKS families for your generosity!  While final numbers are still being tallied, we are sure it was another record-breaking auction to benefit CKS!
