Table Captains help us reach our goal of 1500 guests for the event by committing to fill a table for the event. Other than purchasing their own tickets, Table Captains have no financial commitment – they simply find 9 other people who are willing to purchase a ticket and sit at one of the ten seats at the Table Captain’s table. To identify yourself as a Table Captain make a notation in the designated box when your purchase your ticket at alliesdinner.org. Remind your friends to designate you as table captain when they purchase their ticket!
