Stakeholders gathered at Carroll National to enjoy appetizers and refreshments, sharing memories of previous Kuemper Ball events and looking forward to the announcement of this year’s theme. Kuemper’s Advancement Director, Heather Pietig, says the 2025 Kuemper Ball theme is “We are Eternally Knights” focusing on the future and the long-lasting impact the school leaves on its students.
