Port Richey committee reports $10,900 in pledges as Mayor's Ball fundraising continues

Port Richey City Mayor's Ball Planning Committee · August 18, 2026

Summary

Committee chair said the Mayor's Ball has secured roughly $10,900 in confirmed sponsorships and ticket commitments so far and is pursuing a potential $10,000 presenting sponsor from Waste Pro; members emphasized continued outreach to reach break-even targets.

Chairman John M. Erickson Hoover updated the committee on fundraising, saying, “So, as of right now, um we've raised 4,900.” He reported a $5,000 commitment from Morgan Auto Group (split with Sun Toyota) and an additional $1,000 from Catchers/Port Richey Marine, bringing confirmed sponsorships and ticket commitments to about $10,900.

Hoover said he had discussed a presenting-sponsor opportunity with Waste Pro and had forwarded information to that company’s upper-level management; if secured, Waste Pro would provide $10,000. He also listed outreach to Whiskey Joe's, McDonald's and Carrabba's for smaller sponsorships. The chair noted the committee's internal event reserve of roughly $11,000 remained available if needed and that proceeds from live and silent auctions would further support the charity beneficiary.
