The fundraiser will feature a silent auction, live acoustic music, and refreshments.
All proceeds will go directly to the Pickford family, according to senior and PR/Business Club President Chris Kellen.
“This is an excellent way to help out the Pickford family,” said Kellen. “It’s important that we show our support to Christy and her family, and this is a great way to get the Saint Mary’s community involved.”
Some of the items to be auctioned off include two pairs of tickets to a Minnesota Wild hockey game, gifts from Nola’s Flowers and SMU apparel.
The event will be held in the President’s Room, located in Toner Center, from 7 to 9 p.m., Nov. 19. Admission to the event is $5.
Christy’s auction will conclude with the senior auction on Nov. 29 and 30.
On Saturday, July 28, Christy was struck by a train in Winona, remaining in a coma for a month before opening her eyes on Saturday, Aug. 25. Christy is currently being cared for at a rehabilitation center in the Twin Cities area.
