Cabaret 2012 – In the Sky with Diamonds

Dear Chamber and Community Members,

The Pullman Chamber of Commerce’s Annual Fundraiser Dinner and Auction, Cabaret, will be held Saturday April 7th, 2012 at the SEL Event Center. Not only is the auction our only fundraiser, bringing needed revenue to the Chamber for events,   advertising and operations throughout the year, but it is a great event to attend with entertainment, food and fun!

We are collecting exciting items to be featured in this year’s auction and we’re asking for your help. There are a variety of things that your business could give that would help the auction: a weekend getaway, tickets to a play or sporting event, a bottle of wine, merchandise from your store, or a cash donation for use in purchasing fantastic packages.

Donors are highlighted in the Cabaret program, our website, social media websites  Facebook and Twitter, and are thanked publicly in the Pullman Community Update. Donation recognition categories are as follows:

  • Bronze: less than $499 value
  • Silver:  $500-$999 value
  • Gold:  $1,000+

There are also several sponsorship opportunities available that call special attention to your business including: coat check sponsor, bar sponsor, valet parking sponsor, etc. Please contact the Chamber for more information on this type of sponsorship.

Don’t forget to mark your calendar for Cabaret 2012 – In the Sky with Diamonds on Saturday, April 7th. Thank you for helping make this year’s Cabaret better than ever!

Thank You,
The Cabaret 2012 – In the Sky with Diamonds Planning Committee

Although you can just “drop in” and bowl, it would be helpful if you would pre-register by contacting Lori Clary at om@atvp.org or 332-0552.  We cannot guarantee lanes for bowlers who do not pre-register.  Six bowlers max per lane per hour.  Children under 14 must be accompanied by an adult.
