October 26, 2025 / Xavier Mothers' Guild

Dear Gator Moms,


October is almost over—can you believe it?! Thank you to everyone who attended the first Mother Daughter Adventure. The Game Show Battle Rooms venue was so much fun! Special thanks to Teresa Harvey and our Mothers' Guild staff for organizing such a memorable day.


The team is hard at work putting the final touches on our Xoachella auction, happening November 15th, at 6:00 p.m. in Founders Hall. Our auction items are incredible! Have you bought your tickets yet? If not, you can do so through the links below. It is going to be a great event—I hope to see all of you there.


Our next Mothers' Guild meeting is on November 3rd, at 6:30 p.m. in the Post Room (second floor of Founders Hall). The Rosary will take place at 6:00 p.m. in the Chapel of Our Lady. Please bring canned food items to support XCP's canned food drive benefiting St. Vincent De Paul. Come to "Sip and Shop" and look at all of the exclusive auction items in Gator Gear. We will also be doing some "hands-on" volunteer work with our Xoachella auction team to help get ready for the big event. And as always, Dean Macrina will join us for her monthly update. I hope you all can make it!


Can't wait to see you all at the next meeting.

Andrea Tazioli, Mothers' Guild President
