Through the good and bad times leading up to the show, the end of the four month journey was bittersweet for the company. Connor claimed, “I got to connect with people that I wouldn’t have expected to connect with and to be able to try to work up to be the same role model as the seniors did my freshman year.” Seeing the process from the beginning to the end is something anyone who is involved in theater likes to see. Keller explained, “It was the seeing things go from the start of the four months to the end, how everything slowly builds and builds, and ‘Oh this isn’t gonna look good’ to the end where ‘Oh my gosh this is amazing’ that made this so worth it for me.”

Pattonville's mascot is Pirate Pete. He showed some school spirit by giving out high fives.

Members from Educators Rising passed out tickets to spectators to get into the game.

One of the many baskets was a Pattonville themed basket called 'Why I'm Late for School.' It included $15 Panera Gift card, $15 Starbucks Gift Card, $5 QT gift card, Ice Scraper, Phone Charger, 4 Pirate koozies, and 2 Pirate License Plate Covers.

One of the most popular events of the night is by far the silent auction. There was a total of 46 baskets. Staff member Ms. Fleig was in charge of assembling all the donations into baskets to bid on; she said the longest part of putting them together. "Probably the most timing consuming thing was laying out all the baskets and decorating was a whole another thing." Acoording to Fleig "The highest bid by far was the 'Cardinals Day at the Beach' basket. It went for $150." All funds went towards the St. Louis Rolling Rams.

Alison Skelton bids for a basket in the silent auction.

Coach Braswell explains her goals for the new season, "I am really hoping to get at least one relay and one individual to state this year."
