Auction 2019 Recap

Featuring our Alumana of the Year

Rachel (Hepkins) Thompson '04

We're thankful for another successful Annual Fund Dinner & Auction this year. We were blessed with record net proceeds of over $200,000 and record attendance as well as a fun evening gathered together.

Our Alumna of the Year Rachel (Hepkins) Thompson '04 started us off. Rachel took us on a walk down memory lane recalling her years as a DC student from Kindergarten through 12th grade. She noted the tremendous impact so many of the DC faculty had on her as a student and on her life today and career as an immigration attorney. Rachel's words were met with a standing ovation. Rachel is pictured here on the left, along with sisters and fellow DC alumni Ruthanne Hepkins '07 and Naomi Poyser '02, respectively.

We also heard from the Knightones with a performance of the latest hit "Hello Danny" to welcome incoming Head of School Dan Steinfield.

Proceeds from the auction have made a substantial impact on The Annual Fund, which bridges the gap between tuition revenue and ongoing operating expenses like salaries, curriculum, technology and financial aid. Many thanks to all our event sponsors, donors, and volunteers, many of whom are alumni.

Enjoy a look through some photos of the evening and see if you can you spot the alumni.
