A Successful 2024 Winterfest & Mustang Grand Raffle

This year’s Winterfest and Mustang Grand Raffle was one for the decades as we traveled back in time through the 20’s, 70’s, 80’s, 90’s, and 2000’s! Our parents transformed our campus into a fun time capsule! The McCarthy Center took us back to the Roaring 20’s, with live jazz music; the Dining Hall transformed into a scene out of Saturday Night Fever, complete with a dance floor and disco ball; and the gym captured the remaining decades with a light up dance floor and live music!

Thank you to our St. Rita parents who made this evening possible. They worked countless hours over the past few months planning this event and setting up the campus all in one day. A special thank you to the Ritamen who helped set up and clean up as well.

At Winterfest, we announced the Mustang Grand Raffle winners! Thank you to everyone who purchased tickets and took part in one of our most impactful fundraisers of the year in our efforts to narrow the gap between tuition and the actual cost of educating our Ritamen. Together, we were able to reach our goal of $125,000.
