Thompson Education Foundation has incredible sponsors and supporters! This tournament helps to raise over $30K for students through what they call the YES FUND. TEF gets the opportunity to say YES to students who would otherwise not be able to afford some of the field trips offered, opportunities to afford to play sports, or to play and instrument in the band. Thanks to these donors, students in the Thompson School District all have to opportunity to participate in activities that everyone deserves.
As part of MBD's service offering, we provided the following to Thompson Education Foundation for this event:

  • Team meetings & communication
  • Ongoing communication with TEF
  • Meetings with golf pros and TEF board
  • Vendor contract review & negotiation

  • Press release
  • Silent auction website creation & management
  • Sponsor tracking
  • Staffing on event day
  • Post boosting on social media
  • Event calendar listings across 60+ publications
  • Silent Auction solicitation, tracking and listing

​
Thompson Education Foundation Facts:
  • 15,000+ TSD students supported by TEF's programs, grants and scholarships each school year
  • 1 in 9 students receive a school supply filled backpack each year from the Help Kids Succeed program
  • Over 800 unhoused TSD students receive support to overcome barriers to classroom success with a focus on unaccompanied youth
  • Over a quarter million dollars in post-secondary scholarships are awarded to TSD students each year
  • Music and arts programs are supported at each school
  • Annual coordinated field trips for each 2nd grade (History Days) and 4th grade (Bobcat Ridge) student
  • Classroom, district and travel grants awarded to TSD teachers to enhance curriculum and learning opportunities in schools and classrooms
  • Recognition of educator excellence with the annual Educator of the Year community nomination and award process
  • The Dr. Stan Scheer Memorial Student Opportunity Fund provides financial support that removes barriers for TSD students to embrace individual academic, leadership, recognition and extracurricular opportunities that would be inaccessible because of financial need
Until next year, keep swinging NoCo!

Dozens of couples married or renewed their vows at this year’s Loveland Valentine’s Day Group Wedding and Vow Renewal!

Colorado Venues That Allow BRING YOUR OWN Alcohol

1/25/2022

 
My Big Day Marketing & Events has worked with many wedding venues in our 15+ years in business. We have a record number of weddings on the books for 2022, and one question we keep getting from our couples is: What Colorado venues allow me to bring my own alcohol?
 
With mobile bars and micro weddings still trending for the coming year, more and more couples are exploring wedding venues that allow them to bring in their own alcohol, with or without the requirement of a licensed bartender to serve it.
 
In all cases – based on years of experience and hundreds of weddings – we strongly recommend that you have a TIPS-certified bartender serve your guests. TIPS-certified bartenders are trained to prevent underage drinking; limit that guest who has already had plenty; prevent attendees from driving impaired; and properly report any incidents that do arise for insurance and law enforcement purposes – which benefits you and your venue.
 
Our own My Big Day team is TIPS-certified and provides bartending by the hour through On the Rocks, northern Colorado’s own luxury mobile bar and tap service. Contact us now, and let My Big Day and On the Rocks keep the drinks and the big day flowing smoothly.

Colorado Safe Event for 3,000!

11/2/2021

 
Picture
​Halloween has come and gone and My Big Day Marketing & Events, along with Thompson Education Foundation are thrilled with the turnout of NoCo’s Greatest Drive Thru Trick-or-Treat Experience! This year it was held at the Thompson School District Building in their parking lot. With 40 staff and volunteers and many amazing sponsors and booth vendors, 3,000 attendees were able to enjoy driving through the most festive parking lot this season!  
Picture
Picture
​Tickets were up for grabs for less than a week before selling out. Having tickets booked in advance ensured a safe event and that every kid would get candy, as the booth vendors knew how much to bring in advance. Parents and kids from all over Northern Colorado drove to the venue in full costume and stayed comfortably in their vehicles for the entire duration of the event keeping it a socially distanced and safe time for everyone involved.  
Picture
Picture
​A bright colored numbered paper was placed on the windshield of each car letting booth vendors know how many kids were trick-or-treating from that vehicle. TEF provided bags to hang on the mirrors on each side of the vehicle to help keep up the flow of the event. Some came in small cars with one or two children but others found it best to bring large vans packed full of trick- or-treaters.
Smiling parents, kids, volunteers, and booth vendors was one of the many highlights of this event. The sun was out and smiling with everyone as they all celebrated the community and had fun dressing up and snacking on sweets! We were so fortunate to have fantastic Fall weather!
Picture
​A HUGE thank you to all of the wonderful sponsors and booth vendors! This could not have happened this without your generosity and holiday spirit!

Planning Indoor Birthday Parties in Northern Colorado 2021-2022

10/20/2021

 
The event industry is closer to “normal” than this time last year, and venues are responding to the pandemic in different ways. We know many of you have safety concerns but still want to give your child the birthday party they’ve been asking for, especially if they missed out last year. Of course, every family is different – we encourage you to make the best decision for your family’s safety.

One of our clients is The Family Center/La Familia.  They serve families and children in Northern Colorado. Our team has compiled a list of indoor Colorado kids’ birthday party venues still operating this winter (2021). Visit the links below for more information about each venue’s protocols and restrictions.
 
Happy planning!
