Daytona Beach, FL – (March 7, 2007) –With all 200 hundred breakfast tickets sold, the Builders Breakfast kicked it into high gear with an auction that raised an additional $12,000. Topping off an unbelievable morning, Bruce Rossmeyer, owner of Destination Daytona made an announcement to event host Billy Lane stating he would MATCH all the funds raised at the event.
The first annual breakfast was held last year at the legendary Broken Spoke Saloon on Lazelle Street in Sturgis. Due to demand, a second event was added annually in Daytona. “After the first event I received tons of emails and calls from people who wanted to attend the event, but didn’t go to Sturgis. They asked if we could hold a breakfast in Daytona. I talked to the other Builders and Rossmeyer and we decided we would give it a shot. With very little notice and time we pulled today’s event together. Based on the numbers, I think we did the right thing. Thanks to Bruce Rossmeyer and the attendees, Boggy Creek is leaving with a FAT check!” said Billy Lane, Founder of Choppers Inc and the Builders Breakfast.
Today’s Breakfast raised over $5,000 in ticket sales alone and nearly another $12,000 at the auction. “The beautiful part of today, was that every dollar we raised was doubled thanks to the generosity of Bruce Rossmeyer. Our $17,000 turned into $34,000 just like that” finished Lane.
