Know Before You Go: Annual Gala 2024

Member News, Programs,

We can't wait for you to join us June 14 - see below for details on our auctions, raffles, and more! 


The Schedule:


The Live Auction: 

During the event, we will be hosting a live auction for the following items and packages. 


The Silent Auction: 

At the beginning of the event, we will have a silent auction including ...


Tailgating:

Shot on Goal: Take your best shot on one of our goals! Anyone who makes a goal will be entered into a raffle for $250 added to your Dessert Dash bid.

Speed Skill: Test your speed through our course of cones! The fastest feet will receive a round of specialty drinks for their table.

Guess How Many Soccer Balls: Stop by the RAVE Foundation table to learn about the organization and guess how many soccer balls are in the jar. The closest guess will win a surprise Seattle Sounders prize!


Raffle Prizes Up for Grabs: 

One raffle ticket, three chances to win!

Purchase of a raffle ticket enters you into the Heads or Tails game to win a pair of round trip tickets on Alaska Airlines. You are ALSO entered into the raffle drawing for two additional prizes: a wine collection with fridge OR another pair of Alaska Airlines round trip tickets.  Tickets will be available day-of, and all billing will be tracked and invoiced through your assigned bid number.

Tickets are 1 for $100, 2 for $175, and 3 for $225. 

Raffle winners must be present to win, so be sure to stick around 'til the final whistle!

Note: The purchase of multiple tickets will give you multiple entries into the raffle, but still only one entry into the Heads or Tails game.


Other Things to Know:

Check In: At check in, you will receive your bid card which contains your bid number, and to make things easy, all purchases (raffles, auction, etc.) will be tracked through this and invoiced by e-mail after the Gala.

Meal Preference: Before the gala, be sure to fill out your meal selection and submit any dietary restrictions at this link.

Dessert Dash: Instead of serving a plated dessert, attendees will be able to bid on locally-made desserts for their table in our Dessert Dash. (Don't worry, we will have takeout containers on standby!)

What to Wear: Business or semi-formal attire, please! (Soccer jerseys are welcome, however.)

How to Bid: All purchases, raffle tickets, and the like will be tracked through your bid number, which will be provided upon check-in at the event.

Got Questions?: For any questions, concerns, or the like, feel free to contact the Chamber's Director of Operations, Ashley Clemmer.
