Tables of treasures, experiences, services, and gift cards will go to the highest silent auction bidder. All you have to do is snag a bidder number and keep an eye on the offering(s) you hope to win. Can’t make it in person but want to provide support? Look for an online aftersale, or contact us to make a direct monetary donation! Want to attend but aren’t in a place to spend money? Please join us!

SYC takes pride in our ability to help families overcome financial barriers to attendance at our school. Each year, the SYC Committee receives applications from folks who commit to contributing as able to their tuition, and need scholarship support to make the total payment. As a community planned, funded, and executed event, 100% of the proceeds go directly to the SYC Scholarship Fund.
