Non-Profit Events

Non-Profit Event Details

Non-Profit events are typically 6:00 p.m. – 9:00 p.m. with a buffet style dinner or heavy hors d’oeuvres, non-alcoholic beverages, and sometimes a host or cash bar. The goal of non-profit events is to raise money, so there are typically raffle items, silent auction items, and live auction items during this event. We set up ALL the tables needed for these donated items. Due to the amount of space needed for auction items, food, guests, etc., The Crest Pavilion is typically the venue used for non-profit events (We CAN accommodate an event of 150 guests or less in The Crest Center with all auction item tables and buffets in place). We’ll have a podium, screen, and microphone available to the presenter. We have the capability of hooking up the client’s IPOD or computer to our sound system. We customize each Non-Profit Event to fit within the needs and budget of our clients.
