New Changes for 2022 - Please read before purchasing!

​

• We will no longer dismiss tables for the meal. The food will be ready when you get there and once you find your table you can serve yourselves right away.

• Everything in the program will be shorter except for the keynote speaker. Last year everything was a little longer because of our 10-year celebration, but this year we will go to a simplified and shorter program. It will start promptly at 6:30 and end right around 7:30.

• We will have two raffle items: one for women and one for men. We don’t want to leave the men out!

• We continue to work on the AV and sound. We thought with hiring someone this time that the sound quality would improve, but that didn’t seem to be the case for everyone. Unfortunately, the building itself presents a big obstacle with sound, and all the fans didn’t help, but we have a team already tackling it, so we are hoping to get this down to a fine science!
