EVENTS THAT MAKE A DIFFERENCE!
Churchill hosts a variety of events throughout the year that not only builds our Scholarship Fund but also brings our community together in celebration and support.
Our signature annual fundraiser alternates each year between the Starfish Soirée Dinner & Auction and the Churchill Golf Tournament. We also host our annual Sip & Savor, a festive tasting event featuring local breweries, restaurants and premium wines.
All proceeds from these events benefit the Churchill Scholarship Fund, which provides essential financial assistance to families who might not otherwise be able to access a Churchill education. When you attend, sponsor, or support these events, you’re making a direct difference in the lives of our students – and in the strength of our entire school community.

STARFISH SOIRéE Biennial Dinner & Auction
Starfish Soirée Dinner & Auction
Friday, February 27, 2026
We are proud to share that this year’s Starfish Soirée Dinner & Auction was a record‑breaking success for Churchill and our Scholarship Fund. Thanks to the commitment of our community – volunteers, attendees, and supporters near and far – we raised over $646,000 to advance our work with students and families.
Included in this total is $217,800 dedicated to our Fund‑A‑Need 1:1 Technology Initiative, ensuring that every Churchill student and faculty member will receive a new, secure, school‑managed device. This investment directly enhances teaching, learning and access across our school.
We extend our sincere appreciation to everyone who contributed to this remarkable outcome. Your support continues to make a lasting impact!
