Our Story
Our mission: Our mission is to raise awareness and money each year to help fight Multiple Sclerosis. Proceeds from the event are used to cover the costs associated with equipment, medicine, therapy and doctor visits. The original inspiration for the M.S. Birdie Bash was to help a friend in need. Rick Ebner has been living with M.S. for more than 25 years. A portion of the proceeds from the MS Birdie Bash are allocated directly to Rick to be used for his fight against MS. We also give out grant money to individuals in the metro area that are in need for help regarding their own fight against Multiple Sclerosis.
Our name: Did you know, before we became a gala dinner event, we were a golf tournament fundraiser!? 9 years ago, we started out as a small golf tournament, raising awareness and funds for the fight against Multiple Sclerosis. Over the years, we grew to an amazing and successful golf tournament and dinner event. Then, with even more growth, the past two years we are now a black tie dinner gala. So, this is where the "Birdie Bash" part comes from, and now we are The M.S. Birdie Bash & Dinner Gala!
Our event: The party starts with a happy hour, you can grab a drink, enjoy some appetizers, check out our AMAZING silent auction items, fun games, and have fun in the photo booth! Fun fact... you can get ahead of everyone else and bid on items ALL DAY on the day of the event! Enjoy a full course plated dinner service, and an event to remember... Action packed with videos, pictures, stories and a few surprises! You will have a chance to participate in a live auction with Professional Auctioneer, we auction off amazing items in a real, live auction that everyone can bid on! It’s fast, fun and so amazing to see! We will also give away a fantastic trip during our popular “Heads or Tails” Mardi-Gras beads game! (That's a fan favorite!)
