Dinner with the national champs

[Palatine]

200 bucks. Nice idea for fund raiser. Did we do this in the past?

Reception with the champs at the Convention Center, cash bar, followed by dinner. You get a photo with the team and there is some kind of unspecified program ( I assume that's JC speaking).

I think you get a meet and greet reception for the $200. It's less for just the dinner. It was like that the last time. They also showed a special UConn-only version of "One Shining Moment".

Is this invite only? Where can I find more information on this event?

UConn does this for the women when they win the championship. It's a great time. Usually the dinner only is $75 per person, dinner plus a meeti & greet with the players (open bar + lots of appetizers) is $175 per person. My husband and I pay the $350 to go meet the players and we consider it money well spent. The event is open to everyone and is usally advertised on UConn's web site.

This is cool.

I heard PC attempted to do something like this with their elite x-country teams.

My invitation said $85 per person. Are they trying to keep you from attending Pal?

Do you think kemba will be there since the nba will probably still be locked out by then?

Yes, it is. Looks like dinner only is $85, the meet and greet + dinner is $200.

Fairfield - No dinner for $85. Maybe they have seen you eat.

This sounds like it'd go to a great cause, and 100.00 of it is tax deductible btw. Maybe we could get a thread for those confirmed attending? A little boneyard pow-wow. I haven't met most people here, as for years I never posted. ha ha.
