Friends of Mizzou Picnic & Auction August 17, 2012

It’s picnic time! We’re getting antsy about a new school year at Mizzou, and this indoor picnic at the new Independence Events Center is just the ant-i-dote! Bring the whole family to share Mizzou spirit with fun in the expanded Kids Zone, a big barbecue spread and the Marching Mizzou Alumni Band! The live and silent auctions include Mizzou items, entertainment packages, getaways and family fun. You’ll be able to check out the Missouri Wine Council’s tasting table, and shop for spirit items from Tiger Spirit.

The Independence Events Center is a great new venue for the picnic. There’s easy access to the center at the I-70 and I-470 interchange in Independence, Mo., and lots of free parking.

Tickets are $30 per person in advance, $40 at the door. You can reserve a table of ten seats for just $350, and invite your classmates, friends from your school or college, or fill it with your own MU family.

Early online registration will close at 10pm on Wednesday, August 15, 2012.

Why do we do this? Well, it’s a lot of fun, but our big goal is to raise scholarship money for local high school graduates who will carry on the traditions of the best university in the nation!
