Poplar Bluff, Missouri - The Boys & Girls Club of Poplar Bluff is excited to announce that Mike Matheny, Manager of the St. Louis Cardinals will be the keynote speaker at this year’s Steak & Burger Dinner.
The event will take place on December 12th at the Black River Coliseum beginning at 6:00 p.m.
The Steak & Burger Dinner is one of two large fundraisers that the Boys & Girls Club of Poplar Bluff holds during the year to benefit it’s after school program. The Club serves more than 400 children after school each day through five school site locations and its main site, the Hentz Center on South C Street in Poplar Bluff.
Mike Matheny is a former professional baseball catcher and the current Manager of the St. Louis Cardinals. In 2012 during Matheny’s first season as the Cardinals Manager, the team captured the wild-card game and qualified for the postseason.
Prior to becoming a manager, Matheny played for four different teams, including the St. Louis Cardinals, during his thirteen-year Major League career. He was considered one of the best defensive catchers of his era, winning four National League Gold Glove Awards. He is one of only three catchers in Major League history to catch at least 100 games in a single season without committing an error.
This will make the 2nd year the Boys & Girls Club of Poplar Bluff has hosted the Steak & Burger Dinner. The Steak & Burger Dinner is a unique event hosted by Boys & Girls Clubs across America. The fundraising event provides the opportunity for Boys & Girls Club children to interact with attendees with a Club child sitting at each table. The children will be served a steak dinner, while each guest will be served a gourmet burger dinner. A guest at each table will also have the opportunity to win a steak dinner by being the top bidder with the child at their table serving as the auctioneer.
Tickets for the Steak & Burger Dinner are $75 each, which includes dinner, drinks, and the opportunity to listen to Mike Matheny’s keynote address.
A live auction will also take place following dinner. Tickets can be purchased at the Black River Coliseum, Poplar Bluff Chamber of Commerce, Boys & Girls Club, or online at https://2013steakandburger.eventbrite.com. Sponsorship opportunities are also available for the event.
