Committee Events

One suggestion for next year is on the boat cruise give the name sponsor(s) extra drink tickets to give out to people.

Why? Shouldn't that be on their dime?

I think we usually have extra tickets and it may be a nice perk to let the sponsors hand them out

Do we prepay for the tickets or are we charged for only those used?

I believe we only pay for the ones we use but I don't drink so no idea. For the last three years that I've been on the boat there have been extras so I am just passing along a suggestion someone gave me.

If someone like Scott (er, Steve) Showalter is willing to pony up $9,000 to be a named (top level) sponsor, I am more than happy to give them a few extra. The Flagship cruise contract covered 260 drink tickets for any alcoholic beverage of choice - beer, house wine, call and premium liquor. I do not know if Jim put in for a refill or not. The year before he did (both nights). Perhaps a few to each Gold sponsor but nada to the Affiliates. I think the suggestion is worth pursuing and implementing if managed appropriately.

It's probably better use of the extra tickets than giving them to Jeff and Peter. ;)

Matter of opinion.....

I actually gave a few extra tickets to the ScanForce our platinum sponsor.
