The Day Of

From tee time
to last call.

Make a day of it at Cache Creek. Here's how the schedule shakes out.

  1. 11:00 AM

    Golf — Yocha Dehe Golf Club

    Ranked the #5 nicest course in California 2026 by Golfweek. Tee times are blocked off before public booking opens. RSVP to lock in your spot — they fill fast. Golf is completely optional.

  2. Afternoon

    Pool or Power Nap

    Hit the resort pool, soak up some sun, or crash in your hotel room. Recharge before the main event.

  3. 6:00 PM

    Bid Night Begins

    This is the main event — you need to be there. The room fills, the board lights up, and seniority gets called. Don't miss it.

  4. Late

    Gamble The Night Away

    Casino floor stays hot long after the bid wraps. Cards, chips, and stories until sunrise.

Live Board

Follow every pick in real time — who's on the clock, shift rosters, and what's coming up next. Live feeds of the event, our Union Prez doing his thing on the phone, and whoever is currently up on the Pick Clock. Sit back and relax. 

RSVP

Are you in?

Yes, no, or maybe — every answer helps us project the head count and plan the night.

Union-Backed

The union has verbally agreed to a per-person event stipend. The more brothers and sisters who show up, the bigger and better we can build this night out. Every RSVP raises the bar.

A "no" counts just as much as a "yes." We're projecting head count to plan food, space, and the union stipend — every answer helps.

Optional event, but we need a count for the blocked tee times.
