2017 Alumni Banquet and/or Charitable Trust

(Click on link above)

The 2017 Alumni Banquet will be Saturday, April 29, starting with Mass at 5:30 at St. Paul Catholic Church, and the social and banquet will be held at Farrell Hall immediately following Mass. We will be honoring the St. Aloysius and St. Francis Xavier Classes of 1967, as well as the St. Aloysius Class of 2017.

The Annual Alumni Banquet is also a time when we reach out to our alumni to support the Charitable Trust. The Charitable Trust was established in 1983 by the St. Aloysius/St. Francis Alumni Association to benefit the operations of Vicksburg Catholic School. Every year a check is presented to the school during the Alumni Banquet. Last year, the Alumni Association contributed $2,335 to be invested in the Charitable Trust.  Thank you for your generosity.
