RRD 2009 Holds the Line on Prices

Even though we have once again seen an increase in food costs, the RRD committee has elected to keep the per seat price for the 16th Annual Red Ribbon Dinner at $65.  Likewise, we will continue to offer "early bird" discounts during the first month of sales.

With the cost of gas, food, and well, just about everything else going up, we felt it important to keep our prices at last year's level.  The committee is actively seeking in-kind donations for all items needed to produce the event so that we can maximize the dollars you contribute to benefitting APQC.  Even with last year's staggering increase in food costs, total expenses for putting on 2008's event came in at about 21%... WOW!  We're good at "pinching pennies"!

Diamond / Emerald / Ruby Tables  Limited Availability!

Also, as was done last year, the number of sponsor level tables will be limited to not more than 50% of dining room seating.  If you want to be in the front row, don't dawdle!  Get those paid reservations in early!  Tables are sold on a first come, first served basis beginning October 1st.

What you get for your "bump" in price:

• Diamond Table - 1st Priority seating placement in dining room, 2 bottles of premium dinner wine included with dinner, recognition in program, and deluxe table decorations
• Emerald Table - 2nd priority seating placement in dining room, 2 bottles of dinner wine included with meal, recognition in program, deluxe table decorations
• Ruby Table - 3rd priority seating placement in dining room, 1 bottle of dinner wine included with meal, recognition in program, deluxe table decorations

No matter where you sit, everyone gains from knowing they are part of one of the Quad Cities largest non-profit charity fund raisers, benefitting a worthy and worthwhile cause.
