Welcome to the 60th annual Crab Feed & Auction!
Saturday, February 11, 2023
Mark your calendars today for our Corpus Christi community’s largest fundraiser of the year. And for the first time ever, the event will be THEMED!
You are cordially invited to an evening in the 60’s for the 60th Annual Corpus Christi Crab Feed. 60’s attire is strongly encouraged (think Mad Men, Mod Squad, Flower Child… anything 60’s!!!
The Crab Feed & Auction is a night of fun and fellowship all convening around a common purpose — strengthening our school and parish through fundraising and community building. And we’re finally back to “normal” — the Silent Auction will be held in the school classrooms and the Crab Feed will be back in the gym, so we'll be able to celebrate as one community in person again.
Every dollar raised from the Silent Auction goes directly to the Corpus Christi Parent’s Group, which provides the funds for a myriad of programs that make Corpus Christi unique. We rely on the Silent Auction proceeds to support the Meet the Masters Art Program, technology improvements, classroom remodels, tuition assistance and much more. The funds raised by the Live Auction and Crab Feed go to the Corpus Christi Men’s Club, which also makes generous donations to the school. It’s your participation that makes this event a success. Together, we can raise the funds to support our amazing school community.

Heads or Tails Is Back!
Have you got a head? And a “tail” (aka your backside)? Then you can play Heads or Tails, which is back at the Crab Feed & Auction this year!
So what is “Heads or Tails”? It’s a fun game we play after the Live Auction wherein everyone who buys a ticket gets into the center of the room and puts their hands either on their head or their “tail”. Then a coin is flipped, and whoever chose the wrong side is eliminated. We keep going until there’s only one person left, and that person wins cash!
How much can you win? Well, that depends on how many people buy a ticket to enter…the more people who enter, the higher the pot you can win. Past winnings have reached a few thousand dollars, so there’s definitely the potential for a big payout!
TICKETS:
-
$40 if you buy them before the Crab Feed & Auction.
-
$50 if you purchase them on-site the night of the event.
