CALLING ALL SPORTS FANS: BEACH CAFÉ AT CARILLON POINT HOSTS “BEACH MADNESS” DURING 2010 NCAA TOURNAMENT
Kirkland lakeside restaurant to offer NCAA-themed menus, drinks and contests; patrons compete in “Three Point Challenge” to benefit the Detlef Schrempf Foundation
Beach Café, located lakeside at Carillon Point in Kirkland, announces the launch of “Beach Madness,” a series of college basketball team and mascot-themed menu items, specialty drinks and contests in coordination with the 2010 NCAA Tournament starting on Thursday, March 18 – Monday, April 5, 2010. Throughout Beach Madness, guests can compete in the “Three Point Challenge” at a basketball hoop outside the restaurant to benefit the Detlef Schrempf Foundation (DSF).
Founded in 1996 by Detlef Schrempf and his wife, Mari, the DSF is committed to supporting organizations that provide hope, care and assistance to Northwest children and their families. Since its inception, the foundation has raised more than $9 million through its charity events.
“It is an honor to work with the Beach Café, which shares the same vision of strengthening community by working together,” said Detlef Schrempf.
“We are excited to offer locals a place to enjoy watching the NCAA Tournament, while also providing an opportunity to benefit a great local cause, the Detlef Schrempf Foundation,” said Janor Bourgerie, General Manager of Beach Café. “All basketball fans will have fun enjoying the team camaraderie and playful competition provided by Beach Madness, making Beach Café the place to be on NCAA game days.”
Beach Madness programming and specialty offers are as follows:
- Three Point Challenge to benefit Detlef Schrempf Foundation
At an outdoor basketball hoop, restaurant patrons can purchase three shots for $5; proceeds benefiting Detlef Schrempf Foundation. The shooter receives a $15 gift card to Beach Café for making all three and Beach Café will match the $5 donation to DSF for making two shots.
- Tournament-Themed Menu Items
Beach Café menus will feature specialty appetizers, entrées and cocktails that correlate with the college team match-ups. Featured appetizers include: Final Four Flat Breads & Dip, Panther Prawn Sticks, Sweet 16 Potato Fries and Wildcat Wings. Featured cocktails include: The Husky – Go Dawgs Go, Blue Devil and The Bulldog.
- Rewards for Wearing Team Gear
During the tournament, restaurant patrons wearing an article of clothing that identifies the winning team on that night will receive a complimentary entrée.
