All proceeds benefit the children of St. Joseph School

The annual Popcorn Ball to benefit St. Joseph School is being overseen by Jill Kratz. The Nov. 14 event will celebrate the school's Golden Anniversary -- 50 years of excellence in education.

The selection of Kratz was not happenstance for this momentous occassion. It was made in no small part because of her roots in the community.

She is the granddaughter of the original Popcorn Ball organizers -- Anthony and Teresa Peca.

Although the world is vastly different from the way it was in 1959, some things remain constant. One of them is the care and attention that volunteers and parents contribute to St. Joseph's.

Kratz is active in the Home School Association, which is sponsor of this year's Popcorn Ball. Jill and her husband, John, have three children, one at home and two attending St. Joseph School.
 
The organizing committee would like to encourage alumni to join in the 50th anniversary celebration. Jill Kratz says any photographs of past galas would be gratefully appreciated.

The Popcorn Ball will be held from 6 p.m. until midnight at the school, located at 2 Summit Drive in Batavia. Music will be provided by Rochester’s The RatPack. Dinner will be catered by Alex’s Place.

For further information please call Mrs. Kratz at 585-219-4405 or email her at jcjk2003@aol.com.
