When and where is the event?

The in-person Gala Auction will be Saturday, November 12th at 6pm at the Bellevue Hyatt. The event will take place in the Evergreen Ballroom located on the ground floor around the corner from the Hyatt Front Desk. Guests will kick off the night with a cocktail hour from 6-7pm followed by the Live Auction, Dinner & Program from 7-9pm. VIP Cocktail hour begins at 5:30 pm and is included with VIP admission. 

What should I wear?

The theme is Casino Royale and takes place in the Evergreen Ballroom so it's the perfect opportunity to hang up those Pajama Ball pj's and dress to impress! We are doing our best to bring a night of fun, glitz, and glam to you all the way from Vegas so go nuts :).  We are encouraging guests to dress up but also wear something you feel comfortable in.  People will be in everything from tuxedos and long dresses, to slacks, suits, and blouses. When in doubt, we recommend wearing what you would wear to a nice dinner or wedding. 

Can I register ahead of time?

Yes! We recommend everyone preregister their full name, contact info, meal choice, and have a card on file to speed up the check in process upon arrival.  The more info we collect ahead of time,the less we will need to gather that evening and get you moved through the line as quickly as possible.
