The CID Ultimate Picnic is our largest single fundraiser. The Ultimate Picnic began in 1993 and was an actual picnic celebration featuring picnic baskets in a fun outdoor setting at CID. In the years since, the fundraising event has transformed into a festive gala featuring cocktails and fine dining, unique auction items in our Live and Silent auctions, a performance by CID students and live entertainment. The event also features our Top Hat Scholarship auction where guests have the opportunity to give all eligible students the opportunity to attend CID, regardless their families' ability to pay.

 

In 2011, the Ultimate Picnic raised over $221,000 for CID programs and over $62,000 of that was raised for our Top Hat Scholarship Club. Thank you for providing our students learning opportunities that will serve them for a lifetime! This year, our upscale Western theme will round up more than 300 elite locals for a fun-filled celebration at our Best of the West Ultimate Picnic.
