Dear Crusader Families,
It is with immense and heartfelt gratitude that we write to you today. In a year unlike any other, our Crusader Community rallied in support of our 7th Annual Chili Cook-off in a way that truly showed how SPECIAL AND STRONG we are!
Your support in so many ways have made an incredible difference for Christ the Redeemer Catholic School. Thank you to those who served as underwriters and sponsors. Thank you to each of you who purchased a CtRCS Chili Kit. Thank you to those of you who were able to participate in our Best Bowl Competition. Thank you to all of you who supported our online auction; there was a great frenzy at the end which made it VERY exciting. Thank you! Thank you for being part of something incredible. Thank you for being great ambassadors of our school and true examples of our purpose of living out the Gospel of Jesus Christ in word and action. Thank you for being #CrusaderStrong!
To those of you who served on this year's committee, we are forever indebted to you and your creativity. Thank you for helping to reimagine this event and truly making the seemingly impossible, POSSIBLE! It has been a joy and an honor to work alongside each of you.
We look forward to sharing with you our final numbers in the next few weeks. We really believe that we put up a good fight against the challenges of 2020! Know that there are no others that we would rather be fighting for.
With great gratitude,
With great gratitude,
Katie Griep

Thank you for your understanding.
