PSU Magazine Summer 1990

It's The Ultimate! And You're Invited T he Ultimate Tai lgate, an evening of silent and oral auctions, dinner and dancing to Body and Soul , is plan– ned for Saturday, Sept . 8, in the PSU Gymnasium . Labeled a "casual but elegant" affair, thi s year 's Tailgate should be bigger and grander than last year's highly successful debut event , says organi zers. A sell-out crowd of 500 business and civic leaders attended last year 's party which raised $65 ,000 for student scholarships. Proceeds from the 1990 Ultimate Tailgate will again go for scholarships and also toward the remodeled Branford Price Millar Library. The event is sponsored by the Viking Athletic Assoc iation (VAA) and the PSU Foundation. Chuck Carlbom , pres ident of Western Family Foods and long-time supporter of PSU, is this year's chair. Helping with the event are Gretchen Willison, PSU Founda– tion president, and volunteers from the VAA, PSU Foundation, alumn i and staff. Corporate sponsors include First Interstate Bank of Oregon, Hoody Corporation, Monte Shelton Motor Company, Pay Less Drug Stores NW Inc ., Security Pacific Bank Oregon, U. S. Bancorp , United Grocers, Inc. , and Western Family foods, Inc. Cost per person is $75 and tables for 10 may be reserved. Early reservations are suggested; last year's event sold out.
