Their approximately 500 attendees for the gala will be treated to an enjoyable evening that will feature a different schedule than previous years. Anticipated changes include:<br \/>\nThe awards presentation will be moved from the main gala event to a pre-gala ceremony from 5-6\u00a0pm. This will ensure that the actual dinner portion of the program is not too lengthy.<br \/>\nThe reception with music will continue from 6-7pm. This is arrival time for most guests not attending the pre-gala awards presentation.<br \/>\nDinner will begin at 7pm and include the traditional keynote speaker, scholarship presentation along with extended exciting entertainment.<\/p>\n<p>These changes will help them with their goal of improving the experience for their membership base and event attendees.<\/p>\n<p>We welcome our members and the friends of the NTDO to join them, contribute and celebrate the wonderful work they are doing here in the counties of DuPage, Kane, Kendall and Will counties. We look forward to seeing you at the gala!<\/p>\n<!-- sktbuilder starter --><script type=\"text\/javascript\" src=\"https:\/\/napervilledemocrats.org\/ntdo\/wp-content\/plugins\/skt-builder\/sktbuilder\/sktbuilder-frontend-starter.js\"><\/script><script type=\"text\/javascript\" src=\"https:\/\/napervilledemocrats.org\/ntdo\/wp-content\/plugins\/skt-builder\/sktbuilder-wordpress-driver.js\"><\/script><script type=\"text\/javascript\"> var starter = new SktbuilderStarter({\"mode\": \"prod\", \"skip\":[\"jquery\",\"underscore\",\"backbone\"],\"sktbuilderUrl\": \"https:\/\/napervilledemocrats.org\/ntdo\/wp-content\/plugins\/skt-builder\/sktbuilder\/\", \"driver\": new SktbuilderWordpressDriver({\"ajaxUrl\": \"https:\/\/napervilledemocrats.org\/ntdo\/wp-admin\/admin-ajax.php\", \"iframeUrl\": \"https:\/\/napervilledemocrats.org\/ntdo\/event\/57th-annual-dupage-county-naacp-freedom-fund-and-scholarship-gala\/?sktbuilder=true\", \"pageId\": 663,  \"nonce\": \"0ef1c7ee90\", \"pages\": [{\"title\":\"NTD Officers\",\"url\":\"https:\\\/\\\/napervilledemocrats.org\\\/ntdo\\\/wp-admin\\\/post.php?post=475&action=sktbuilder\"},{\"title\":\"2022 Election\",\"url\":\"https:\\\/\\\/napervilledemocrats.org\\\/ntdo\\\/wp-admin\\\/post.php?post=11490&action=sktbuilder\"}], \"page\": \"57th Annual DuPage County NAACP Freedom Fund and Scholarship Gala\" }) });<\/script><!-- end sktbuilder starter -->","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u201cAdvancing Together\u201d Saturday, March 9th\u00a0 2013 Wyndham Lisle 5:00pm \u2013 6:00pm Presentation of Awards 6:00pm Reception \/ 7:00pm Dinner Tickets: $75.00 Each &nbsp; Keynote Speaker: Shavon Arline-Bradley Director of Health<br \/><a class=\"moretag\" href=\"https:\/\/napervilledemocrats.org\/ntdo\/event\/57th-annual-dupage-county-naacp-freedom-fund-and-scholarship-gala\/\">+ Read More<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":662,"template":"","meta":{"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false,"_tribe_events_status":"","_tribe_events_status_reason":"","footnotes":""},"tags":[],"tribe_events_cat":[],"class_list":["post-663","tribe_events","type-tribe_events","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_likes_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/napervilledemocrats.org\/ntdo\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tribe_events\/663","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/napervilledemocrats.org\/ntdo\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tribe_events"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/napervilledemocrats.org\/ntdo\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/tribe_events"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/napervilledemocrats.org\/ntdo\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/napervilledemocrats.org\/ntdo\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tribe_events\/663\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":670,"href":"https:\/\/napervilledemocrats.org\/ntdo\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tribe_events\/663\/revisions\/670"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/napervilledemocrats.org\/ntdo\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/662"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/napervilledemocrats.org\/ntdo\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=663"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/napervilledemocrats.org\/ntdo\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=663"},{"taxonomy":"tribe_events_cat","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/napervilledemocrats.org\/ntdo\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tribe_events_cat?post=663"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
