I don't understand why you don't want to use String.Format. It just makes writing it easier and less error prone. Anyway if you want to write w/o it:

cmd.CommandText =
 "SELECT * from .... WHERE EventDate >=#"+
 startDate.ToString("d", new CultureInfo("en-us"))+"# and ... <= #"+
 endDate.ToString("d", new CultureInfo("en-us"))+"#";
