Events & Announcements

Vacation Raffle

Sales are off to a great start! Several members are seeing success by selling tickets through social media. It is so easy and really works! Post a photo of tickets and make it easy for people to pay digitally. They can either pay you on your Venmo, PayPal or Zelle and you can Venmo the Club (easiest way to keep track). Remember to turn in your sold ticket stubs!

 
The drawing will happen at Battle of Plattsburgh or sooner. If everyone sells their tickets early, we can draw early.
 
See or contact Ellen Bouchard to get your pack of 10 tickets.

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
Don't miss your opportunity to sponsor this year's Bed Race!  Contact Linda Brienza ASAP if you are interested.
Special thanks to Sally McSweeney for donating back her Queen of Hearts winnings.  $3,700 will be donated to the food shelf!
