Geherens to benefit from Taylor Richmond dance, auction

Organizers of the ninth annual Taylor Richmond Benefit Dance, coordinated through the Office of Activities, Leadership and Service, have chosen Bill and Mia Geheren as this year’s recipients. Both are 1990 graduates and have worked for both Saint Mary’s University and Saint Mary’s Press. Their family of six includes three adopted children, who were born addicted to cocaine; one child is addicted to heroin and meth as well. Money from the benefit dance and silent auction, planned for March 26-27, will help the family purchase a much-needed handicapped accessable van.

Faculty and staff are invited to donate items and services to help make this year’s silent auction a success. Call Katie LaPlant at Ext. 6936.
