COMMUNITY

PUBLIC INVITED

By: Jim vaughn January 24, 2010

If you are interested in promoting a fund raiser for the PTA, Senior Center, Orting Food Bank, a local soccer or little league team, an after school organization, or to assist families in need, etcetera, we are here to help.

This past Friday, we conducted a Beta test for a BBQ Rib Dinner at the Orting Eagles and are now prepared to launch benefit dinners on Friday or Saturday nights for our community. With today’s economy we know that dollars are tight and our local business owners cannot financially support the fund raising efforts for every organization that approaches them. To this end we are ready and waiting to support your organizations fund raising efforts.

We have a whole sale supplier of St. Louis Style Pork Ribs that is working with us to provide an outstanding dinner at an excellent price. As a result, we can offer 1/3 of a rack of ribs that will literally fill your dinner plate. Your second plate will be filled with all you can eat homemade southern corn, baked beans, curly fries, coleslaw and corn bread.

Here is how it works. Your organization, sells tickets for your fund raiser and keeps $5 for every $15 ticket sold. We also ask that your members help serve the meals and clean up after the event. This will not be to big of a deal in that we will serve the dinners on paper plate. Note we need a lead time for tickets sales so we know how many dinners to prepare.

Please note these dinners are open to the public and we will post upcoming dinners and the organization that will receive the proceeds to allow anyone who is interested to purchase tickets for the various events.

If your organization has an interest, please contact Todd at the Orting Eagles (360) 893-3480 or Jim at (253) 241-9634 to schedule a date.
