Here is how it works:
- You must visit the Buffalo Wild Wings located at 33-C Maryland Ave in the Rockville Town Center.
- You must present your waitress/waiter/cashier our fundraiser ticket. (download below). The restaurant WILL NOT honor your meal by using your mobile device as proof. You must download and print the ticket and take it with you in order for us to receive credit for your meal.
- The meal must be purchased on November 8th between the hours of 11 am and midnight. That’s the entire day. So order wings for your office at lunch, bring the kids in for dinner after school, or meet your friends at BWW to watch the Steelers take on the Panthers on Thursday night football. Can’t make it to the restaurant? No problem… order your wings over the phone and be sure to bring your G-Rock fundraiser ticket to present to the cashier when you pick-up your order and enjoy your wings at home!
- Print as many of the tickets you want and share them with your friends at work, in your neighborhood or on your social media.
That’s all to it!
