Henry Travers’ VIP Scholarship Dinner Fundraiser
Cattlemens Restaurant, Petaluma
May 13, Thursday: 5 – 6pm
Socializing, no-host bar & Appetizers
~ 6-8:30pm: Dinner
Always a sellout, this will be our 4th annual dinner and an especially fun evening that every American Graffiti fan will want to share. The atmosphere at Cattlemens is cozy and the food is superb (which is why we keep coming back). 50’s decorations, great behind the scenes stories and this year, really cool prizes including free entry into Salute 2011 and this evening’s dinner on the house!

Returning again this year will be the always smiling and bubbly Candy Clark, who of course played Debbie in the movie, Lynne Stewart who played Bobbie Tucker, the driver of the VW Bug and Al Nalbandian. Do you remember him? He played hearty-handshaking Hank Anderson, owner of the arcade, and the Moose Lodge member who recommended Curt for the $2,000 Moose scholarship. Al has appeared in many movies and TV series and at 88, he’s still going strong!

Proceeds from this exclusive dinner will benefit the Henry Travers’ Memorial Scholarship Fund. In addition to Al, you’ll enjoy the company of Henry’s wife Jackie, Cruisin’ The Boulevard directors as well as several members of the original production crew.

Seating is very limited and only available in advance. Tickets are $85 each and include appetizers, dinner with your choice of entrée including prime rib, ribeye steak, chicken kabob, shrimp scampi, salmon or vegetarian, glass of wine, dessert, and coffee or tea. Guests will also receive special Salute 2010 limited-edition mementos. Dress is casual.
