Attention OMMS Parents!
As you probably know, Christmas in July is our largest and most profitable fundraiser of the year. All proceeds go directly to the operating costs of the school and directly benefit your children. The Live Auction always has the potential to bring in quite a profit and we are currently seeking items – both large and small – to auction off! If you own your own business (or know someone who does) and are willing to help out the school by donating an item, it would be greatly appreciated! (Many times these donations are tax-deductible.) Anything from restaurant gift cards and hotel/resort stays to smaller items for our themed auction gift baskets are welcomed. If you have something that you would like to donate or have questions about the process, please contact: Ellen Vandaveer at (760)237-6655 or by This email address is being protected from spambots.

Christmas in July will be held Saturday, July 13th 2013 and Sunday July 14th 2013. Our annual shopping extravaganza draws thousands of people each year. Offering handmade arts and craft items (many with Christmas themes) by over 150 artisans, the event also includes a rummage sale, bake sale, food court raffle, kid's activity area and live entertainment.
The event dates back to 1977, when the parents and staff of Old Mission Montessori School organized a jams and jellies sale, and has developed into the school's major fundraiser, providing $60,000-80,000 per year to supplement tuition at Mission San Luis Rey Parish's parochial school.
The fair hours for the public are 9:00 am to 5:00 pm. and will once again be held under the trees on the beautiful grounds of the historic Mission San Luis Rey Parish. Our address is 4070 Mission Ave, Oceanside, CA 92057. Get Directions
