ABOUT
THE
PIG PICKIN’
The Jamestown Pig Pickin’ is the annual fundraiser for Family Service of the Piedmont in Jamestown
and surrounding areas. This is an outdoor casual event that takes place under a large tent. The event
features the best local BBQ pork and chicken; beer and wine, soft drinks, southern sides and desserts will
also be served. Music will be by U.B.U. Bid on items from local merchants in our Silent Auction and Live
Auction. Individual tickets to the event are $50 per person.
Last year’s Pig Pickin’ was attended by more than 550 people and raised $63,500 to directly help families
and children in the Jamestown area. With your help, we can have even greater success in 2014!
ABOUT HOSTING
THE
PIG PICKIN’
The key to the success of the Pig Pickin’ is the Host Couple concept. Area couples and individuals are invited
to sponsor the event at the host level for $175. Host names are listed on the invitation, which is mailed
to about 2,000 people in the Jamestown area. Hosts receive 2 tickets to the event, VIP parking and
check-in, and are given a button to wear at the Pick Pickin’, to recognize their level of support. Hosts may
also receive optional yard signs to display prior to the Pig Pickin’.
Additional sponsorship levels are also available, starting at $500, which include the option to list your
sponsorship under a business name. Sponsors receive additional event tickets and recognition, relative to
their level of sponsorship.
We would love to have your support this year! Please contact Jody Susong at (336) 889-6161, Ext. 1105.
Please respond by Monday, June 9th in order to make the invitation printing deadline. Thank You!
