Share

You’re cordially invited to join us as we celebrate the accomplishments of the 2017 Phantom Regiment at our Celebration Banquet. We’re excited to announce that this year’s guest speaker will be Dan Potter, host & producer of DCI’s “Field Pass” with Dan Potter. Dan joins the list of our guest speakers that have included Janina Gavankar, Tom Blair, Dan Acheson, and Brandt Crocker.

If you can’t attend, but would like to help donate to the cause to keep this event free to the members, you can do that as well!

Our 2017 Celebration Banquet will take place at:

Indianapolis Marriott Downtown
350 West Maryland Street
Indianapolis, Indiana 46225
 

But hurry, as advance pricing ends August 9th. After that, you can purchase at the door, but at the higher price. Though, we STRONGLY encourage you to purchase now so that we can have a better head count before the banquet, plus you’ll save money.

Keep your email confirmation receipt as we will not send out actual tickets. Instead, your name will be on our RSVP list when you check in.

You can pay & reserve your seat here.
