It is now less than two weeks until our 2026 fundraiser, "The Roaring 20s" Saturday, April 18th.
All 50/50 raffle tickets and money as well as any unsold tickets should be turned in by Tuesday April 7th. If you have not bought your tickets for the event, we do have a few tickets still available and we could still use a few additional bottles of whiskey for the "Whiskey Pull", bottles of wine for the "Wall of Wine", and cases of beer for the "Tower of Beer". These items should also be brought to the meeting on April 9th.
We will be having 20 live auction and about 90 silent auction items. A complete list of all auction items will be emailed to every Rotarian for them to share with their guests. There are several items that you may want to join forces with others at your table to bid on together. Here is a partial list of some of the larger items:
