Mis at the Zoo - Two Weeks to Go!

Did you know Drew? Andrew Althoff was one of many special needs students that passed through the Geneva Public School District. He spent his formative years riding around on his bike socilalizing about town and singing Billy Joel to anyone who would listen.

Drew is now 30! He's living in Misericordia, a beautiful campus in Chicago with housing and infinite opportunities for people with special needs. Drew is a working man now -- holding a number of different jobs on and off campus -- and still singing and chatting it up whenever he has an audience. 

Join us to raise money for Misericordia at Mis at the Zoo, an event on Oct. 6th at Brookfield Zoo. Spend a day viewing the animals -- and also enjoy lunch, a DJ, and a special auction/raffle that will include Notre Dame tickets, Bulls tickets, Bears tickets, American Girl dolls, a Kohler American Club package and an iPad! Thanks, too, to Geneva businesses Sandra Webster; Herrington Inn & Spa; Chazio's; and Villa Verone for donating a Geneva package.

You can buy tickets at www.misatthezoo.com or call Judy Althoff 630-803-1327 for more information.
