Hey all you Bulldog fans ... Pull out that letterman sweater, old cheerleading uniform, Glee Club blazer, prom dress or the rest of your “glory days” clothing. Join us as we relive our own high school days while honoring Judge students past & present … Welcome Home!

All of us in the Judge Community are indebted to two amazing supporters who are serving as honorary co-chairs for the 2010 Gala and Auction - Mary Kaye Huntsman, Utah's former first lady and wife of the now United States Ambassador to China, Jon M. Huntsman, Jr.; and Amy Cervino Corroon, a 1988 Judge alumna and wife of Salt Lake County Mayor, Peter Corroon.

The 29th Annual Judge Memorial Catholic High School Gala & Auction is set for November 6, 2010. The Judge Gala & Auction '10 is one of the major events to jumpstart the 90th Anniversary celebration. This year's event, Welcome Home, will be held at Judge Memorial, right back where it all started, and honors Judge Memorial-St. Mary of the Wasatch students, both past and present.

Proceeds from this exciting event enhance programs that benefit students at Judge. And are our students amazing or what?! The Class of 2010, our most recent graduates, spearheaded a year of remarkable achievements, and we are proud to support all they do, in and out of the classroom.

Stay tuned as updates and announcements are made and make plans now to attend what promises to be a fun evening. We look forward to seeing you there!

September 8, 2010 posting: One Gift can make a difference. The Gala committee is soliciting donations for the silent and live auction. No item is too small, or too large; and every family can give something. If you frequent a local coffee shop or bakery, ask them for a donation. Have a favorite florist or specialty shop? Ask if they would donate a gift certificate or service. Does your family have access to a vacation home or timeshare? Consider giving a week's stay. A list of suggestions donations is available at the link below, and we also look forward to receiving $10, $25, $50 or $100 gift cards of your choosing. Auction Items Donations Requested.
