After 18 years, the time has come to bid a bittersweet farewell to our annual Harvest Hoedown celebration.
Since 2006, this fall tradition has brought together the Saint Mary community in support of a shared mission: to challenge our diverse student body to grow morally, academically, and socially into passionate, confident, Christ-centered leaders.
Thanks to the generosity of our parents, alumni, donors, and sponsors, Harvest Hoedown proceeds have supported critical areas of our school — most recently our STREAM (Science, Technology, Religion, Engineering, Art, and Math) education initiatives. With your support, the Hoedown grew from a small fall gathering into a true harvest festival.
We are happy to announce that the tradition of honoring members of our community will continue. Each year, we will still celebrate two special awards:
- The Harding Award, which honors a Saint Mary graduate who exemplifies excellence in service to the community.
- The Saint Joseph the Worker Award, which recognizes an individual, family, or organization that has shown outstanding dedication and support to our school.
Stay tuned for information on how to submit nominations for these awards. As we close this chapter, we are confident that our vibrant Advancement and Home and School events throughout the year will continue to strengthen our community, support our students, and uphold our mission.
