LARKation: Your Getaway Awaits A Fun Evening in Support of Regis Jesuit’s Students and Mission Thank you to everyone who joined us locally, nationally and globally on April 24, 2021, to celebrate and support the RJ community. LARKation, Regis Jesuit High School’s 48th annual auction and second virtual experience netted proceeds of more than $560,000 (including the LARK Raffle, Online Auction and Paddle Raiser).
