TICKET SALES HAVE BEEN CLOSED. There are a VERY LIMITED NUMBER of ticket sales left at the door. We do not know how many yet but, essentially, the club is paying for some spots in anticipation of last-second people but cannot cover too many so that we do not incur too much of a loss.

Where: Casino Yellowhead (12464 153 St NW, Edmonton, AB T5V 1S1) in the Retro Cabaret Room. We knocked it out of the park last year, we got their biggest room in the house!

When: Saturday, October 15, 2016. Drinks @ 5PM and Dinner @ 6PM. Goes on and on until the break of dawn.

How much:
* $45/person
* If you've volunteered 1-2 FULL weekends this year (Saturday and Sunday), tickets are $20/person (anybody purchasing this option will be cross referenced against Tricia Reese's volunteer list)
* If you've volunteered 3+ times this year, FREE! Just email [email protected] if you've volunteered 3+ times this year and wish to attend (I will cross reference against Tricia Reese's volunteer list)

TICKET SALES END ON Oct 3, 2016 @ 6PM. You cannot purchase tickets after this date.

There will be drinks, dinner, more drinks, announcements, trophies, videos, plaques, and all the fat-free water you can drink.

FAQ:
* How do I buy tickets? PayPal! http://emra.ca/index.php?pageid=payments
* Can I pay at the door? Yes, but the fee is $60. Since planning a banquet for an expected 100+ people requires notice on several fronts, we must have our numbers firmed up well before the banquet.
* Important Note: We will only have a limited number of at-the-door tickets available this year. Since it's a buffet, trying to accommodate for an unanticipated 10 people will reduce the food portions by 10%. 20 people = 20%. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE buy your tickets in advance. We love you all and do not want to have to turn you away. If you know you might be purchasing a ticket at the door, please email me: kwan [dot] wilson at gmail [dot] com and I will try my darnest to accommodate you and your schedule

We want to encourage everybody to purchase tickets BEFORE Oct 3, 2016 @ 6PM.

Also, of course we want people to have fun, but please do so responsibly. As such, please plan your rides ahead of time. If you accidentally happen to have one too many beers, there are several organizations that will drive you back home in your own vehicle: https://ama.ab.ca/knowledge-base/articles/designated-driver/

If you have any questions, please post them here or in our FB group (https://www.facebook.com/emraroadracing/)

Please note: Due to the location of the banquet, unfortunately minors are not allowed on the establishment. We apologize for any inconvenience.

Tickets are on sale only for another two weeks as of this post!

Remember, there are only a very few number of door tickets available so you are well advised to pre-purchase in advance.

We have the LARGEST ROOM in the house. It has a full stage for a band, ample seating, our own private bar + bartenders, a huge massive screen for the year end video, and more dance floor space than you can shake a stick at!

Haven't forgotten about the out-of-towners.

I'm trying to set up a preferred rate for the EMRA at the same hotel as last year. Keep you guys posted!

To all out of town guests:

We have set up a preferred rate with the St Albert Inn which is about a 10 min cab ride from the casino. I do not have the promo code yet, but after speaking with the GM, we are getting one set up now.

Link: http://www.stalbertinn.com

I will edit this post as well as the original post with the information once I get it. It should be by tonight. Once I get the promo code up, you can then make your reservations.

Thank you

EDIT!! Group rate finalized

Semi formal? You would fit in with the majority if you wore one of the following:
* nice jeans, shirt, sport jacket
* dress pants and dress shirt
* two piece suit and a shirt (button up, t-shirt, or golf shirt)

Ive never seen anybody will be in t-shirts and jeans.
