2012 Dinner/Auction Recap

On Saturday, April 28th, the Wildcat Diamond Club hosted the 6th Annual Dinner/Auction in the Normal West gymnasium with great success!

A great turnout of nearly 300 coaches, parents and supporters raised approximately $11,000 to fund future improvement projects at the Normal West baseball complex.

For other photos from the event, click here.

A special “thank you” to all our donors for their generous contributions of auction items. The players, coaches, parents and fans are extremely grateful for your generous support of the program. For a complete list of donors and vendors who contributed to our event, please see this link.

To plan and execute a successful event like this takes a large, talented and dedicated team. Thank You to the board members who lead/served on the various committees, parent committee members, the Normal West staff, and Dan Faber from the Flanagan High School FFA who cooked our steaks.

We are proud of the successful tradition of Normal West Baseball!
