For years, our Founders, a small group of event professionals came together for a social round of golf. Being event people, it could not stay a casual event for long – a committee was formed, phone calls and emails ensued and meetings on patios enticed the industry to play! FORE!

In our first two years, we raised over $15,000 in support of STARS Air Ambulance. A few years ago, the Loading Dock Scholarship initiative was launched, raising money toward elevating our local industry.

The Loading Dock Scholarship was created to give back to the industry. The Founders wanted to inspire youth to consider careers in the event industry and elevate the talented young event professionals just starting. The funds raised at the LDC event each year fund a live events industry-based scholarship program.

The Loading Dock Scholarship program aims to provide funding and resources to educate, elevate and expand our thriving local industry. We want to make change while creating change makers!
