Due to limited capacity, both complimentary and guest tickets were issued on a first come, first serve basis. The Carson Scholars Fund limited the number of guest tickets. Unfortunately, we have reached event capacity. If you would like to be placed on a priority waiting list should tickets become available due to guests no longer being able to attend, please contact our office.
To recognize your achievement of being named a Carson Scholar, you are invited to the Annual Carson Scholars Awards Banquet on Saturday, May 11, 2024 at the Caloosa Sound Convention Center in Fort Myers, Florida (2200 Edwards Drive, Fort Myers, FL 33901). While the ceremony will begin promptly at 12:00 P.M., scholars may be asked to arrive up to an hour prior to the start time. Detailed event information will be sent with your tickets after attendance is confirmed.
As a first-time scholar, you have access to three (3) complimentary tickets for yourself and two (2) guests which must be reserved through our website. Up to two (2) additional tickets may be purchased for $70 per ticket. If you would like to purchase more than two additional tickets, please call our office to be placed on the waitlist.
We also invite scholars’ families, friends and/or educators to purchase a Scholar Congratulatory Messages and/or an Educator Thank You Messages to be published in the 2024 Awards Banquet program book. This is a great opportunity to commend your scholar on a job well done and thank teachers for all the great work they do!
