Second Annual Celebrity Waiter Dinner

Local celebrities can be found “Somewhere in Time” at the Walton Area Chamber of Commerce and Coastal Area Council’s Second Annual Celebrity Waiter Dinner, August 14, 2008, at Hilton Sandestin Beach Golf Resort and Spa.

“Celebrities” throughout Greater Walton Area and the Northwest Florida Gulf Coast will serve up delectable fare while dressed in attire reflecting this year’s theme, “Somewhere in Time…A Night at the Movies”. Representing movies, actors and actresses, from a variety of eras and decades, the celebrity waiters will bring their guests with them dressed in character.

The Master of Ceremonies, celeb reality star, Lisa Hinds, of the Amazing Race: Season 9, will announce the array of festivities throughout the evening, including a silent auction which includes items such as accommodation getaways, fine art from local artists, a dinner cruise aboard the Solaris, massage packages and much more. Entertainment for the evening will also be provided by local musical celebrities.

From developers and bank executives to elected officials and executive directors, prominent area professionals will be serving the local community. A favorite conductor or president/CEO may be seen working their tables for a good cause. Tips for their hard work will support the Walton Area Chamber Foundation (WACF).

“We are very excited about this event and most appreciative to the Chamber’s Area Council for their hard work,” said Lori Kelley, WACF chair. “Most importantly the Foundation will be able to continue its efforts, as a leader, by providing programs that strengthen our community.”

The WACF was formed to support the Walton Area Chamber of Commerce strategic direction through educational and charitable programs that strengthen the business climate for the Northwest Florida Gulf Coast and the Greater Walton Region. The Foundation is responsible for such programs as Leadership Walton, Youth Leadership and ATHENA International. The organization strives to continue and enhance these quality programs, as well as bring other innovative opportunities into the area. The Celebrity Waiter Dinner will assist in the success of these endeavors.

The Second Annual Celebrity Waiter Dinner will be held August 14, 2008 at the Hilton Sandestin Beach Golf Resort and Spa, 6-8:30 pm. Tickets are available for $55 per person or a corporate table may be purchased for $1000.
