Menu

This year, our Dinner Buffet will include many items from our local restaurants.  While tables will be assigned, we will have open eating from 6:45 until 8:00.  Vegetarian options will be offered.

If you have any food allergies, please let us know in advance.

No need to pick up your ticket(s) at the office.  We will have you on the guest list at the door.

The Auction

​If you love a good auction, we will not disappoint you.  After dinner, we will host a live auction that will give you the opportunity to outbid your neighbors on some outstanding items.  During the auction, you’ll be able to play several games for the chance to win “Auction Bucks” that can be added to your bids on live auction items.
Throughout the night, we will also have a Prize Board.  Purchase a square and win the matching prize.
