I am more concerned about the possibility of the storm surge damage/rising water damage near the stadium. That could make Lot X a bit messy. [Reply]

Seems like it’ll still have a few days to dry out between the storm and the game. It should be good I would think. [Reply]

I've already reached out to Alexa on her cruise to ask........if the game is still on as planned and if the "X" parking lot is flooded from the river rising can we move the fundraiser events to another spot? [Reply]
We are going to have a donated backdrop/banner made specifically for the Jacksonville events. We will have a red carpet for people to stand on in front of the backdrop and fans can take pictures to memorialize their trip to the Jacksonville game and Arrowhead South events.
At the Arrowhead South Jacksonville events we are going raffle off this one of a kind customized Chiefs cooler. Hand built with all top quality wood. $5 a ticket or 5 entries for $20. Proceeds to benefit the Patrick Mahomes foundation.

Current total of tickets sold:
Saturday Night VIP fundraiser....170 tickets sold.
From the fan who booked the original Arrowhead South group at the Hyatt Cheri Jones:
“To my knowledge they never closed our group rates. If your reservation is affected by the Sept 6th closure (only 2 people to my knowledge booked on Friday night) go online and rebook for Sat or Sun, or Sat/Sun https://www.hyatt.com/en-US/group-booking/JAXRJ/G-KCCB
otherwise we are all good.”
We already have plan B, C and D in place for inclement weather. If needed, We will try to adapt those to the remnants of Dorian.
The Jaguars are our partners for these events. We have direct line communication to the leadership. They return our calls swiftly. If needed, We will get front of the line service. [Reply]
The Jaguars are working with Arrowhead South to make all this happen. We are preceding with all events, phone calls etc with the Jags this week. The Jags think the game is on. Logistical details need to be finalized.
The caterers, BBQ teams, flights, hotel rooms, security, DJ, electric, etc...., are all contracted and we are ready to finalize the details. We had a local BBQ restaurant contact me just today and donate all the side dishes(cole slaw, Baked Beans and Brunswick stew) to help out with this event. The meat has been shipped to the warehouse.
As of 08/01 we have sold 626 tickets - 438 for Tailgate on Sunday, with a max of 700, and 188 for Saturday, VIP - with a max of 300 [Reply]
Not just seeing all the volunteer work I’ve done go to waste but did some math yesterday and we have/had 41 volunteers give some of their time or sweat equity to make these weekend events happen. [Reply]
Here in Jax the storm is almost a non event. I'm sitting in my garage with the door open and it's a little wind and a little rain. Supposed to be sunny Sunday. [Reply]
