Tip-Off Dinner Reservations Still Available

MOUNT PLEASANT - Reservations are still being accepted for the Fifth Annual Central Michigan Men's Basketball Tip-Off Dinner, to be held November 2, 2010 in CMU's Bovee University Center.

The event will start at 6:30 p.m. with a meet-and-greet and cash bar. This is a great time to catch up with your favorite Central Michigan player or coach and get an update on how the school year has started.

At 7 p.m. a buffet style dinner will be served and "Meet the Chips" will follow at 7:30 p.m. During the presentation, fifth-year head coach Ernie Zeigler will talk about each player on the roster and discuss the upcoming season. The cost for this event is $40 per person or $200 for a table of six.

Fans also have the opportunity to sponsor a player or coach for the night by underwriting their ticket and sitting at their table for the evening. For more information or to register, please call the basketball office at [phone] or email Sue King at [e-mail].
