Dudley will provide a preview of the upcoming basketball season, as well as some insight into this young 2008-09 hoops team.

There will be a live and silent auction, as well as a raffle, for Fayetteville basketball tickets, as well as some Razorback gear and autographed items.

We want to avoid some of the issues experienced by our members at the recent GTRC Kick-Off Party. Therefore, we are giving SoCo’s an opportunity to provide a better food and service experience for this Tip-Off Party. Therefore, we ask that you RSVP if you plan on coming, so that we may assist SoCo’s in their preparations. This isn’t a commitment on your part as we realize “things come up” in our daily lives; however, your response would be appreciated.

You may RSVP to 918-249-4516 or christopher.a.mckeown@ampf.com
