Save the D-Date

Our annual benefit dinner is coming... Time to party on!

1 min read

Save the date for our annual benefit dinner! This year is titled “Remember...” because it falls on D-Day weekend! June 5th, 2021. Doors open at 5 with cocktails and conversation and dinner starting at 6. Tickets go on sale April 1, 2021.

This year we have quite the treat for you all! Our speaker this year is Police Chaplain Jim Bontrager, who if you don’t know him is a wonderful man, a Marine, and a reserve officer! Chaplain Bontrager started the largest Police Appreciation event in the country and people from all over the United States flock to it. He has a ton of knowledge and his speech should be excellent!

Our Supper entertainment is none other than the beautifully talented Julia James, who is fresh off the trail of releasing her newest single! And for after supper we will have High Gravity with us and they will help us dance and party the night away!

Scott McMeekan will be our Master of Ceremonies and will provide excellent commentary and keep our night rolling in the usual way! But not in the Cats n the Cradle style of way... Just sayin...

The price for this event is $25 for an individual, $40 for a couple, and/or $150 per table (8 per table). And again, the tickets will be on sale starting April 1.

More to come soon!
