Thank You! St. Tim's Spaghetti Dinner: Viva Santa Maria A great time was had by all at Viva Santa Maria! Edwards Hall was transformed into an Italian Extravaganza (thank you, Shelly Hausman, Dave Wilde and Bob Ulrey.)  Over 70 people of all ages came to enjoy a delicious spaghetti dinner (thank you Chef Holly McCullough) and were serenaded by excellent Italian music, including famous opera arias and love songs - even O Sole Mio!  The auction items were great fun (thank you, Darlene Frick) and elicited some good bidding wars!  The accounting is not complete yet, but we hope to have raised between $3500 and $4000 for Santa Maria Urban Ministry.  Sincere thanks go to all who made the event so successful.
