The bartender booking was alittle different than anticipated. You pay her for serving drinks. The $50 you pay for the evening includes her $300 fee. The liquor, wine, and beer has to be bought. You apply and pay $50 for a permit with the State to serve drinks for your event. The permit is included in the $50 you pay for the evening. She said the cost per drink comes out less doing it this way. I will have to buy the liquor and it is not included in the $50 you pay for the evening. NC Law doesn't allow you to charge/collect for drinks unless you are non-profit or a commercial business with a liquor license. But individuals can make a ‘donation’ to cover/defray alcohol cost. Based on the bartender estimates, I figured the recommended donation at $2 to $3 per drink will off set my out of pocket for purchasing the alcohol. She's estimates 4 drinks per person during the 4 hours. So alcohol will be purchased based on her recommendations.
Cash tips to the bartender is separate and of course optional.
Please text me 319-310-3551 your booze preferences. Here is what the bartender has estimated I should buy:
Liquor 7 fifth bottles allowance set @ $25. What liquor do you prefer? Wine preferences? One case wine allowance set @ $10 a bottle, and beer preference? 3 cases beer @ $25 per case
At 9 pm the venue ends. For those who want to continue to enjoy the evening with classmates let's meet downtown at
Blackbeard Triple Play
415 E Front Street

They have music that evening
REMEMBER THE REUNION DATE IS FRIDAY 11/7 AT GHENT EVENT CENTER
TIME 5 TO 9 PM AND IT WILL BE LIMITED TO THE FIRST 60 CLASSMATES/SPOUSES

LOOKING FORWARD TO SEEING YOU THERE!!
