The NEW SD Awards Banquet is organized by sponsor tables of eight. Sponsors include local SDCEC society sponsors, schools and others, and company/corporate sponsors. Each organization pledges and pays for at least one table of 8 (see prices below) and is recognized in the banquet program as a banquet patron. Table sponsors are encouraged to sponsor one or more of their student members. Reservations beyond the table size of 8 are charged at the equivalent per person rate. Partial tables will be combined with other partials (and closely located) to the parent table(s). Societies, universities, and companies may elect to subsidize a portion of or all of the cost of each reservation. Please check with your representative to determine the cost to you.

Each table patron must supply a sponsor contact (table captain). Individuals will provide reservation information (name and entree selection) and payment for their seats.
