Jeff and Amanda Foell, will chair the 2026 St. Mary's Ball and Charity Auction for Storm Lake St. Mary School. The event will be held March 14, 2026 in the Siebens Forum at Buena Vista University. Jeff is a graduate of Storm Lake St. Mary High School.
The Foells reside just outside of Storm Lake. Amanda works in the office at Larson Oil, and Jeff works at Farm Credit Services of America as a Financial Officer. Their commitment to a faith-based education for their children—Owen (fifth grade), Benson second grade), and Nora (Kindergarten)—stems from a belief in laying the foundation for growth and success. Jeff serves on the St. Mary's Foundation Board and Amanda serves on the school board.
Planning has already begun with Buena Vista University, researching a band, searching for co-chairs and more of the many details.
The Foells said they are honored to lead this meaningful endeavor and eagerly anticipate an unforgettable evening with the community.
