Hey band! Don’t forget, tomorrow is our Main Event fundraiser! From 11 am-2 pm come on out, play, eat, drink, and we will get 20% returned back to us (non-alcoholic beverages only).
Be sure to stop by and see me at the exit to turn in your receipts—this is how Main Event will track how much is spent for our fundraiser.
Also, if you are a Raise Right user, purchase a Main Event gift card (10% earnings) and use that to double dip. 😉
