Guests at the 23rd annual Motlow College Foundation Gala on March 7 will be treated to dinner, dancing, and the chance to bid on some outstanding items in a silent auction, according to Jan Rogers, director of advancement at the College.
“In addition to having a great time, the gala also is an opportunity for area citizens to show support of Motlow College students,” said Rogers. “All proceeds from the gala benefit our students, primarily through scholarships. It is our most important fundraiser of the year, and we invite everyone to come out for an enjoyable evening.”
This year’s event will be held in the Tennessee Ballroom of the Manchester/Coffee County Conference Center and is sponsored for the ninth year by American City Bank and the Clayton Family Foundation. The evening will begin at 6:30 p.m. with a social hour, followed by dinner at 7:30 p.m. and dancing to the music of Entice until 11:45 p.m. Dress is black tie optional. The cost is $100 per person and tables for eight or 10 guests may be reserved.
A Motlow representative will be contacting area businesses for donations to the silent auction, which is always a popular part of the gala. One item of particular interest in this year’s auction is a judging opportunity at the 26th Jack Daniel’s World Barbecue in October, along with attendance at a judging seminar and two passes to a private party on BBQ hill.
Reservations are required and can be made by calling Phyllis Daniel at 931-393-1543 or emailing pdaniel@mscc.edu.
