The luncheon will be held at the Bremer Student Center on the Olympic College Bremerton Campus, and take place from 11:45 a.m. to 1 p.m. The goal for the event is to raise $85,000 for the students and programs at Olympic College.
This luncheon is the primary fund raising event for the Olympic College Foundation and serves as the kick-off for the annual campaign. Donations raised provide the critical financial support for our students and programs in Kitsap and Mason counties for the 2005-2006 academic year.
