A Prosperous Evening of Cuisine, Beverage, Good Company, Auction and Poker

The Showcase of the Chefs

A Prosperous Evening of Cuisine, Beverage, Good Company, Auction and Poker

The Flathead Valley Ski Education Foundation and I would like to invite you to attend and support the “Showcase of the Chefs” here in Whitefish on Dec 2nd at 6:00 pm. The Showcase is a longstanding tradition and one of the premier social functions here in the Valley. Held at the well-known Lodge at Whitefish Lake on Wisconsin Avenue; the event enjoys a pleasant and innovative dining set-up that actually does showcase 8 chefs from the best restaurants in the Whitefish area. Each Chef and their representative establishment, set up a station that serves their own trademark menu item, complete with complimentary wine matching their represented cuisine. Imagine a Chef’s version of a “Battle of the Bands”… Dinner guests may ‘roam the room’ and graze from one or all the buffet tables as they wish. It creates an especially fun atmosphere that provides some great food and an ambiance that promotes mingling and fun social interaction with the whole attendance. Tickets are $75.00 per person. Where else can you have dinner from 8 of the best chefs in the valley, wine and all the fun you can have for $75 a person? Because of the popularity of the event, tickets may not be available for sale at the door.

As you might guess, we see and visit with a lot of old friends. We all think you would enjoy the occasion.

Tied to the event are a Silent Auction and a Live Auction that always has terrific items available. As always there is a great representation of both Silent and Live Auction items. Additionally live poker tables will be on-site for your enjoyment!

Of course the Showcase is a fundraiser to help the Foundation with its mission of supporting our athletes in their competitive endeavors. As you know our program gives our children a quality program that helps them set healthy goals and make good lifestyle choices.

If you are unable to attend there are other ways that you can support the Showcase of the Chefs. Of course you can buy tickets even if you are unable to attend. Our ticket sales are very important to our outcome. Additionally our auction can always use items for both the silent and live auctions and donations are tax deductable. If a company or a large group would like to reserve a table we are able to reserve that table and a group of 10 tickets for a total of $750.

We know you will consider your evening at the Showcase to be a wonderful social outing, but also know that your support of our programs will be even more lasting by helping to support quality programs for our children.

Rooms for the evening are available at special pricing. The Lodge at Whitefish Lake will offer “take the elevator home” rate. In the lodge it is $129 and in the Viking Lodge the rate is $99 for Showcase guests.

We appreciate the help and we hope to see you at the Showcase.

Thanks!
