Everyone is invited to attend this year's New Year's Eve Celebration at the historic Clocktower. The evening begins with cocktails and hors d'oeuvres at 7:30 p.m. which will be followed by a sit-down gourmet dinner, including a delicious salad, a mixed grill entree of mesquite grilled petite filet of certified Angus beef tenderloin and grilled filet of Pacific red salmon prepared with mouth watering marinades and salsas. Dessert is a decadent warm chocolate volcano torte with Grand Marnier creme anglaise and raspberry coulis.
"Struttin," a well-known, popular local band will provide music to dance the night away. Party favors and a glass of champagne to toast the New Year are included in the ticket price of $75 per person. To add to the festivities, there may just be a few surprise auction items!
The Benicia Board of Directors announced that this is the Chamber's largest fundraiser of the year and the Board is pleased to contribute a portion of the proceeds from the event to the Benicia Unified School District. Another example of community, business and education partnering for a better Benicia.

Black Tie Sponsors include Hamman Real Estate, Solano Bank, Valero Refining Company-CA, and BizNet.

Even if you are not a big fan of New Year's Eve parties you can still contribute and offer your support by purchasing raffle tickets. First prize is $2004 cash, second prize is $1000 cash, and third prize $500 cash. Tickets are available for just $10 each or 6 for $50.
