The "D" In Downriver Event
HI all,
On behalf of chair Kim Mott you are invited to help us plan this NEW event March 3. It is the club's largest fundraiser and funds over 100 charities throughout the year so we hope we can rely on your support to make this prosperous and fun!
Tues: Sept. 15 at 7pm at Mom's Restaurant (food/drinks on own)
Bring your ideas!! Here are our so far!
Concept:
This "all about" Detroit party started with a motown concept but some said they didn't like just one genre so we may consider the band Saints of Souls, a Detroit band versed in Motown, Rythym and Blues, and top dance tunes.
We are thinking of adding elements like a Casino area, Detroit star look a likes, like Kid Rock, Maddona, Paws, Diana Ross, ect..Of course our auctions would run similiar to Beach blast but of course hyping the Red Wings, Lions and Tigers.
We could also maybe get tickets to Fisher, Fox, breweries, ect. Instead of coconut cash, maybe Motown Money. Also the decor could be various "corners or architecture of Detroit"...just to share a few concepts to get your brainstorming hats on for the meeting.
If you give what can be taken, you are not really giving. Take what you are given, not what you want to be given. Give what cannot be taken. ~Idries Shah
