THE DUEL

 

Please join us for our 7th annual The Duel – a pairing and LIVE MUSIC event which benefits the children attending the Boys & Girls Club of the Tri-County Area.

Ready to scare up some fun? Dress up in theme and creep on over to this year’s spooky Soiree held at Ripon College’s Great Hall. This spooktacular Duel event will feature Knuth Brewing Company’s wicked brews and Vines &Rushes’ haunting spirits, while Ripon College’s chef creates a frightfully delicious entrée suitable for any goblin or ghoul. In addition, we’ll be bringing back the talented Ted Oliver Productions for an extraordinary dueling piano performance! The Duel includes a cocktail hour, silent/live auction, appeal, and live music. All proceeds benefit the Club.

Stay tuned for details regarding next year’s event which will be announced in 2024!
