(ONE TICKET IS GOOD FOR A TABLE OF UP TO 6 PEOPLE VALUED AT $20 PER PERSON)
Our Ripple Effect Donation Program continues to search for ways to better our community and the lives of the people who reside in it. Starting August 13th, we will begin our initiative to help raise funds to redevelop a greener, healthier, and safer schoolyard for the students of Riverwest Elementary. We want to help the youth in our direct area feel valued and worthy of a proper place outside their school to partake in activities that nurture their full potential.
Riverwest Elementary has partnered with Reflo, a non-profit organization whose mission is to catalyze sustainable water use, green infrastructure, and equitable water resource management to support objectives that are valuable for local communities. The conceptual plan for the school is to remove 27,200 square feet of asphalt and replace it with new green space and mixed-use recreation and educational areas.
The marquee fundraising event will be an Adult Spelling Bee at Lakefront Brewery Beer Hall on Thursday, September 19th. We will welcome teams to purchase a table and participate in a bar trivia-style spelling bee where they will work together to properly spell each challenging word. Tables will cost $120 (plus fees) and teams will be allowed up to 6 total people to compete. All table costs will be donated to the project as well as $1 of every beer purchased that day. The top 3 teams will take home Lakefront gift cards as prizes. Funds from a silent auction featuring an array of items will also be donated to the project that night, including a signed Damian Lillard jersey and basketball! While event attendees DO NOT need to purchase a table to attend, get involved, and help the cause, only those with a purchased table can participate in the spelling bee portion of the night.
The event will begin at 5:30PM with the Spelling Bee getting underway at 6:30PM.
