Adesse PRIDE!
Now in our 36th Year!
Putting Revenue Into DAWG Education!
It has been awesome to watch the growing support of our DAWGS Football team this fall as they continued their quest in the post-season. Their theme of ‘PRIDE’ extended across social media with a great following--over 5,800 viewings of a single post on Facebook (the picture shown here on the left).
Now it is time to use that same enthusiasm and support our DAWGS in the classroom!
It is time for Adesse 2019. Adesse is Latin for ‘Support’ and this is the 36th year that we’re asking for your support of Aquin in the classrooms. Adesse is a daily cash drawing in which winners receive $25, $50 or $250. Aquin families sell the tickets from Thanksgiving through the beginning of January. We offer an ‘Early Bird Discount’ on tickets sold through December 2 when single tickets are just $20. On December 3rd, tickets are $25 each, or 5 for $100 (if all purchased at the same time).
Our annual goal is $30,000 in profit. These funds go toward expenses in the classrooms--like books, desks and internet--as well as the ‘unseen’ expenses--like heat, electricity and maintenance. Our DAWG staff is resourceful, dedicated and committed to offer a quality education in our buildings. Recent alumni are currently chiropractors, architects, engineers, lawyers, teachers, military personnel, tradespeople, imagineers at Disney and so much more. They’re giving back to their communities and returning to tell us how much their Aquin education prepared them for their futures.
Please keep this legacy going strong by supporting Adesse
and keeping Aquin PRIDE alive in Freeport!

After ticket sales are complete, we put all of the Adesse tickets in our big barrel and the fun begins. We draw a name for each day of 2020. Each time you win, your check will come to you in the mail, and your winning ticket will be put back in the barrel to be pulled again--January 1 through December 31--no matter how often your name is drawn as a winner.
