JEFFERSON PARK — Our Lady of Victory School's annual fundraiser will take attendees on a tour of local eateries, organizers said.
The annual Victory Ball — the school's main fundraiser — will take place from 7-10 p.m. April 24 at the school, 4434 N. Laramie Ave.
Appetizers from local restaurants will be served, and the event will feature a silent auction and raffle.
The event will also honor the first graduates to be included on the school's Wall of Flames. The inductees are Joanne Schlecht Hayes, Donna Labek Contreras, Sharon Whiteside, Mary Beth Luecker Schaefer, Maureen Brown, Mary Therese Iacopelli Feeney, Brian Richter, Shay Boyle, Liam Boyle and Matthew Heinrich.
The Wall of Flames is designed to recognize OLV alumni who have made outstanding contributions to the school or community, organizers said.

Cocktail attire is requested.
St. Cornelius, Our Lady of Victory, St. Pascal and St. Tarcissus schools will be consolidated into one school over the next year, with the new school opening in fall 2016-17, according to the Archdiocese of Chicago.
