Hey Alabama Alumni & Friends!

We know you've been anxiously waiting....and....

DETAILS ARE SET! The SEC Picnic is now SEC Football Kick-Off Party!

Saturday, August 27th will be time again to say the ultimate goodbye to summer and hello to football season, SEC style! This SEC party has continued to grow each year and become the event to not miss!

LET'S HAVE A GREAT TURNOUT AS NATIONAL CHAMPIONS!

Where and When

The 2016 SEC Football Kick-off Party will happen Saturday, August 27, from 12:00-3:00PM, at Stoney's Bar and Grill, 1111 Lincoln St., Denver.

Ticket Purchase Details and Deadlines

Tickets are $15 for adults, and Kids ages 5 to 12 are just $7! There will be a small processing fee upon checkout. Kids under 5 are free but we do need a headcount so please select the option for them as well.

The link to purchase your tickets is below.

The password is "national champs"

You will need to PRINT & BRING YOUR TICKET WITH YOU. This includes kids tickets!

The deadline for advance ticket sales is SATURDAY, August 13TH. As a reminder, we have to have this advance number for food preparations and other items that require payment and greatly appreciate your help with meeting this deadline.

Food and Drink

In keeping with tradition, we'll be serving up a full buffet of delicious house-made BBQ and Southern-style sides, and a soft drink. (Stoney's is also able to fully accommodate any special dietary restrictions you may have, including vegetarian/vegan, gluten-free, etc. Just let us know!)

If you're of legal drinking age, representatives from New Belgium, Budweiser, and Coors will be on-site and pouring complimentary beer while supplies last.

In addition to the complimentary beer, there will be a full bar with awesome drink specials coming your way courtesy of some sponsors still to be named.

You will need to show ID if you are of drinking age.

Other Great Things Happening

Just look between 10th and 11th on Lincoln, 11th and 12th on Lincoln, at 12th and Sherman, at 11th and Grant, at 12th and Acoma, at the Beauvallon, at the Denver Art Museum, and at Colorado History Museum.
Of course, we also encourage the use of Uber/Lyft, taxis, carpooling, and public transit. Please Be Safe!

What Happened to the Picnic?

As you've probably noticed, the number of SEC fans in Denver has grown exponentially over the last 10 years. This is great news, but it also makes getting the proper parks permits/insurance/security/organization extremely difficult. We spent a tremendous amount of time and effort investigating many options, and in the end, the united SEC schools decided that the best option for this year's event was to have a hosted party at an event space.

Please rest assured that we're very excited and hopeful for the quality of this year's SEC Kick-off event, and we've done everything we can to preserve the picnic environment and to keep the event family-friendly and fun for all with MORE activities and entertainment options! We look forward to having you join us!

ROLL TIDE!
