Vacation Raffle-We Need Your Help!

One of our principal ideals is to help our community financially, and we do this through fundraising events and projects. We started selling our Win/Win raffle tickets at the end of June, and we started out with a bang. But currently, we have almost $9000 in Rotarian's hands with unsold tickets, and sadly, way too many are being returned unsold. We only have a week left. If you are a seasoned member, you know how important our funding is, and if you are a new member, we have many local organizations that really depend on our support. We help everyone in our community, from our children to our seniors.

Please sell or buy your tickets. Help us become successful! If you need more tickets, Anna can help. If you see a fellow Rotarian post it on Facebook and share other people's posts. 

 

Battle of Plattsburgh:

Parade Marshals
Annually, Rotarians serve as parade marshals for the BOP event. This year's event is Saturday, Sept. 14 (signing up will not conflict with the bed race). Marshals will meet at 12:15pm near the Elks Club (Durand Street & Cumberland Avenue) for safety instructions and assignments.  Parade marshals help with parade pacing and spacing. To sign up or for questions, contact Bob Parks at (518) 578-8195.

 

Bed Race
The fundraising goal for 2024 has been met! Please promote the event on social media. If you have any local celebrity ideas, share them with Linda Brienza or Vicki Marking.
