Syracuse, NY (January 13, 2004) – The Syracuse Crunch announced today that their ninth-annual Crunch at Your Service Dinner will be held on Monday, February 23 at the War Memorial at Oncenter.

Crunch players will be at your service on Monday, February 23 at the War Memorial at Oncenter beginning at 6 p.m. Cocktail hour will be from 6-7 p.m., where guests will have the opportunity to take pictures with their favorite Crunch players and bid on silent auction items. Dinner will begin at 7 p.m., as players ‘work' for tips by performing crazy antics and strive for the honor of being ‘Top Waiter'.

This year's dinner will benefit the Crunch Foundation and the Central New York Children's Hospital at University Hospital.

The mission of the Crunch Foundation states: "The Syracuse Crunch Foundation will utilize the unique talents of its professional athletes, coaches and staff to improve the quality of life throughout the community by dedicating time, resources and financial support to organizations committed to meeting the educational, cultural, health and wellness needs of its citizens."
