Big City Bob Posted August 17, 2005 Share Posted August 17, 2005 FYI: Yesterday I received an invitation to a fund raising reception at St Clair Country Club hosted by Jim Allsup of Allsup, Inc. on August 31. Cheryl Levick, Brad Soderberg, Shimmy Gray and other SLU representatives wil be there. Per Allsup, current pledges are at $21 million.

Box and Won Posted August 17, 2005 Share Posted August 17, 2005 My invitation must have been lost in the mail. Please provide us with an update after the reception! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Schasz Posted August 18, 2005 Share Posted August 18, 2005 I have to believe my invite got eaten by one of the Gators here in Palm Harbor, FL. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billiken_roy Posted August 18, 2005 Share Posted August 18, 2005 it is my understanding that the reception targeted the metro east boosters. jim alsup, the president of alsup, inc. lives in the belleville area and his company is based in belleville. i would be willing to bet similar receptions will be held throughout the area hosted by other boosters. i hope to attend mr alsup's reception and if there will let the board know what if anything of substance is covered. my guess is this will be more of a dog and pony show and end with a push to buy bricks.

Major Majerus Posted August 19, 2005 Share Posted August 19, 2005 I've been invited to the same type of deal at a private home on 8/25. It's a great way to raise money - giving the donors face time with people actually running the programs. I'll report back, but it'll probably be a repeat of what others will report back from other receptions. I'm looking forward to it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
