Beginning last summer, their leadership and diligence to create a successful evening is evident in each detail and greatly appreciated. Thank you as well to the many volunteers who have given their time, talents, and treasure to ensure everything is just as it should be to make sure your evening is “Filled with Joy.”

Have a wonderful time tonight knowing that it is because of your generosity that we will continue to build Canyon Heights Academy to be the very best it can be and to give a CHA education to as many students as possible.

3010 Essential

Sine Qua Non was created after the 1994 harvest of a BienNacido Syrah named “The Queen of Spades”. Winemaker Manfred Krankl feels strongly that each vintage is a completely unique wine and thus he gives each wine a unique name. He also creates the artwork for each new label himself. This bottle of 2009 Syrah "The Thrill of Stamp Collecting" impresses for its poise and underlying energy. Boysenberry, spices, licorice, cola and mocha sit on a core of firm tannin as this powerful wine opens up in the glass. The intensity of the fruit and the oak are dominant at present. In another few years the wine should be spectacular. The Thrill Of Stamp Collecting is 90% Syrah, 6% Grenache and 4% Viognier, all destemmed and mostly from estate owned vineyards. The anticipated maturity of this wine is 2014-2024. A truly unique bottle of wine!

14 Head of School for the Day

Our fearless leader Dr. Margaret Richardson has agreed to let one lucky student be “Head of School for the Day”. Your winning student will meet with Dr. Richardson ahead of time and discuss a new rule to be implemented for the special day, such as “red sock” day, or a tree-planting ceremony with ice cream for his or her entire class. In the morning, enjoy breakfast with Dr. Richardson before you begin your day greeting CHA students



as they are dropped off for school. Conduct morning assembly, make official announcements over the intercom and, of course, observe students in the classroom. You will also attend the monthly strategy meeting over lunch with another classmate of choice and Dr. Richardson. Finally, to top it off, Dr. Richardson will grant a “homework pass” so that your winning student can relax in the evening after his or her busy day “at the office”. When she is ready to go back to being a CHA student, a $100 Choicelunch gift certificate and $150 Zuca gift certificate will come in handy. Your child will be thrilled if you win this item!

Value: Priceless Min. Bid: Yours!Donors: Dr. Margaret Richardson, Choiclunch and Zuca

Come and retreat… with your friends!

NOW AVAILABLE: PRIVATE RETREATS TAILORED FOR YOU AND YOUR FRIENDS!

Our 16-bedroom retreat center is small by most standards — and we like it that way! The retreats and events we offer here are designed to suit groups of friends, not groups of anonymous strangers. The Legionaries of Christ priests tailor their talks and schedules to the unique needs of each diverse audience.

We invite you to be a Retreat Captain. Contact us, schedule a your own overnight or full-weekend event, and come with your friends. A partial list of the types of retreats to choose from include: Catholic Boot Camp, Weekends with Pope Francis, or perhaps just a Rest, Relax, and Recharge. The price per person is based on the size of your group.

Our Lady of Santa Clara offers very comfortable rooms with private baths, spectacular beauty, and nourishing food for body and soul. Our retreat directors are committed to making your valuable time worthwhile. We hope that, like so many others have experienced, God will bless you here.
