Since its inception in 1985, the biennial Dinner Belles dinner and auction has been a special time for friends of Mount St. Mary Academy to enjoy an evening of camaraderie, dinner, and fabulous live and silent auction items. Our 2024 event took place on Saturday, March 9, and raised more than $100,000 for the school and tuition assistance. We look forward to hosting this event again in spring 2026.
