Everyone Gets a Seat!
Your Basket Raffle chairs have been busy checking into possible alternate venues for our big fundraising event, and we have found a new site!
After looking into six possible venues for our Basket Raffle, the chairs and the Board have decided to go with Four-Star Event Catering. This is located in Oak Valley, nice and close, and will seat 250 people plus room for baskets and buffet dinner. Four-Star is a Small Business Enterprise (SBE) and Woman Owned Business Enterprise (WBE) registered in the State of New Jersey.
Dinner will include roast beef, lemon chicken, baked ziti, parsley potatoes, string beans almandine, potato salad, pasta salad, garden salad, assorted cold cuts, assorted bread, rolls & butter, pepperoni & cheese, chocolate mousse, assorted pastries/cookies, coffee & tea, plus draft beer and wine.
The cost is just $5 more per person than Adelphia, but the venue addresses the two major complaints that we heard about the previous events:
- Not enough seats for everyone
- Inconsistencies in the food.
Date Chosen
We are looking at Monday, October 16, 2023 for our event. This is the week after our club meeting, and is NOT Columbus Day Weekend. We hope this works for all of you!
Basket Raffle Open Meeting
We will be happy to answer any questions and address any concerns at our Open Meeting, which will take place on Tuesday, March 21 at 7 p.m. on Zoom.
The meeting is open to anyone in the club, and if you are interested in being involved in the committee you should definitely plan to attend. We are looking for several leadership positions for our committee. And of course worker bees are always needed!
We hope you are as excited as we are about this new venue. Start planning your basket to donate now, and we’ll talk more in March!
