\"Dinningtable\"<\/a>Jamestown (CSi) Plans are underway at University of Jamestown for “An Evening of Mystery,” the 28th<\/sup> annual Dine and Bid dinner and scholarship benefit auction. The event will take place Saturday, April 12, 2014 in the Larson Center on the University of Jamestown campus.<\/p>\n

On Thursday\u2019s Wayne Byers Show on CSi Cable 2 the university\u2019s Karen Crane and Tena Lawrence said the event features the opportunity to bid on an array of unique items in silent and live auctions, the chance to win exciting raffles throughout the evening, and the challenge of solving a mystery or two. A delicious meal is catered by Aramark and overseen by Regional Executive Chef Paolo Stefani, whose numerous culinary credentials include catering in the corporate suites during the 2000 Summer Olympics in Sydney, Australia.<\/p>\n

Director of Development, Karen Crane, says “We are sincerely grateful to the Jamestown community for being so supportive of Dine and Bid. From event sponsors to our auctioneers and Master of Ceremonies, to committee members, and the businesses and individuals who donate auction items, we rely on each of them to make this event successful.”<\/p>\n

Items in the auction include a tailgate party for 20 at the Jimmies\u2019 opening home football game, a one-year movie pass to Bison 6 Cinema, and a seven-day vacation package to Hilton Head, S.C. Also up for bid will be road signs with the “Jamestown College” name, the letters from the word “College” at the campus\u2019 front gate, and the original front doors of the recently-renovated Orlady Hall.<\/p>\n

University of Jamestown students get involved in the event by managing valet parking, greeting attendees, displaying items, serving the meal, and assisting with delivery of large auction items to buyers\u2019 homes.<\/p>\n

Ms. Lawrence added that the students and the attendees will also take part in mysteries to be solved during the evening.<\/p>\n

Casey Stoudt will serve as Master of Ceremonies. Auction services will be provided by More from Orr Auctioneers.<\/p>\n

The event is open to the community. Tickets can be obtained by contacting Tena Lawrence at (701) 252-3467 ext. 5415 or<\/p>\n

tlawrenc@uj.edu<\/b><\/a>. Reservations can also be placed online at <\/b>http:\/\/alumni.uj.edu\/event\/dinebid2014<\/b><\/a>.<\/b><\/b><\/p>\n

Ms. Lawrence added that during the evening there will be a sign up to take part in a Mystery Bus “Eat-A-Thon,” coming later. For a cost of $100 participants will take a bus ride led by University Present, Dr. Bob Badal, where stops will be made at local eateries, which will be a mystery until the event takes place.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
