Mayfair is a word that has been associated with Trinity Episcopal School for many years. It has undergone many changes throughout the years. This year’s Mayfair and More will be a fantastic event filled with many exciting activities for all ages. Even more exciting is the 50th Anniversary of Mayfair. Our theme is Rockin’ Thru the Ages. The entire community is encouraged to attend on the Trinity Campus.

The kick-off party will be from 6 to 9 p.m. Friday, April 22. This Fleur de Crawfish Adult party will honor all former Saints – alumni, faculty and staff. Tickets are $35 each which includes crawfish, sides and soft drinks. A $10 beer cup is available for refills. Attendees will be able to preview the silent and live auction items and shop in the Mayfair Market. Tickets are being pre-sold at www.trinitysaints.org or at the school.

The silent auction will offer items many different areas of interest for opportunities to score some great merchandise and packages! Many of our area businesses have graciously donated unique and interesting items. It will be open also from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m.

The live auction will begin at 12:30 p.m. in the high school gym. Kendall Covington from Brookhaven will be our auctioneer for this fun part of Mayfair.

The “More” in Mayfair and More is the Mayfair Market. This fun and interesting market will include many handmade craft items, food and fun objects that were found at the Canton Flea Market. Jams, soaps, hand painted glasses, birdhouses and many other unique items will be available for sale. Many of these items were made by Trinity parents! The Pre-K and Kindergarten classes are selling some fantastic homemade sweets — cupcakes, cookies, cakes and pies.

The students are bringing back the Rockin Revue! This is an all-school program that is sure to bring a lot of laughter to the event. Each class picked a song from the ‘60s through the 2000s and will have 2 minutes to dance, sing, or skit. The Revue will begin at 9:15 a.m. in the high school gym.

All of this will definitely make you hungry so lunch will be available also. The adult lunch is a pulled pork sandwich with chips and a brownie. If this doesn’t fit your taste buds, lighter fare is available in the concession stand.
