Join NAMA at Topgolf in Kansas City

Written by NAMA on Thursday, March 1, 2018 , 8:10 am

Topgolf is for everyone.

Whether you’re a seasoned golf pro or have never held a club before, it doesn’t matter! There’s no pressure—it’s just a great time. The best part of Topgolf is spending time with a group of great people and getting to know them better—the perfect icebreaker!

You’ll be on a team of six people. All you have to do is swing your club to hit microchipped balls into targets. In between swings, you can relax on the couches or tables near your game and enjoy complimentary drinks and food. How you spend your afternoon is entirely up to you—but we hope you’ll give it a try!

Plus, your participation helps the Student NAMA Careers Program since this is a fundraiser put on by ABEF!

MoKan NAMA Taste of KC Tour

Written by NAMA on Thursday, February 15, 2018 , 9:36 am

COFFEE, COCKTAILS AND CORRUPTION

Savor, sip and share on NAMA’s flavor tour of Kansas City. The food and drink are sure to be on-par with the conversation and networking at The Roasterie and Rye. You’ll feel finer than a Prohibition-Era politician when you end the day with cocktails at Tom’s Town, a 1920’s-style Kansas City Speakeasy!

In the morning, your regularly scheduled caffeine buzz will get a jolt with a behind-the-scenes tour of The Roasterie factory. Attendees will learn secrets of brewing the best at-home coffee, and receive a complimentary Roasterie pub glass – not to mention a sample of The Roasterie’s
mouthwatering Nitro, Cold Brew or Iced Tea.

We’ll keep the fun moving and get back to the roots of agri-marketing with a delicious meal at Rye on the Plaza. After chowing down, attendees will get the chance to learn about Rye’s farm-to-table philosophy, as well as their partnerships with local farmers who provide the ingredients for top-tier American fare.

Then, bootleg the spirit of Kansas City Prohibition-Era Spirits at the beautiful art deco lounge of Tom’s Town Distilling Co., a local speakeasy that draws its roots from the infamously crooked politician, Tom Pendergast. Sip one of Tom’s Town’s award-winning craft cocktails after a tour of the distillery and barrel room. Because, as Tom Pendergast loved to say, “the people are thirsty.”

Register today so you can savor the aroma of the coffee business, share a farm-to-table meal and conversation, and flout prohibition with your NAMA friends and colleagues!

Cost for the tour is $75. 

Wednesday, April 11
9:30 a.m. to 2:00 p.m.

2018 ABEF Topgolf Outing

Written by NAMA on Thursday, February 1, 2018 , 8:13 am

The past few years have been such a success that ABEF is continuing the alternative golf outing again for 2018! Join your peers at Topgolf for a competitive and fun time everyone can enjoy—no golf experience required.

Here’s how it works… Take a swing at microchipped golf balls, aiming them at targets to rack up the points. Just picture a 240-yard outfield with dartboard-like targets in the ground. You can choose from different games where you aim your golf balls at different colored targets. The closer to the center or “bull’s-eye” you get and the farther out into the field you hit, the more points you receive. Plus, enjoy great drinks and food in an upscale club atmosphere. Fore!

Are you more of a visual person? Check out a video of Topgolf.
