The Carpinteria Rotary Clubs are asking for our help in volunteering at this fundraiser. It is their largest annual fundraiser of the year and will take place on Saturday, March 28, 2009 from 7PM-10PM. They will need hosts, servers, ticket takers, et cetera.
The event takes place at 5315 Foothill Road
If anyone is interested they can get back to me at jennifer.wang@sbrotaract.com. We need actual commitments so that I can submit the names to Rotary.
Rotaractors are encouraged to go to the Downtown Brewing Company from 6-9 PM tonight (that’s right now!) to support another Relay For Life team. A portion of the night’s proceeds go towards a cure.
On Sunday, March 22nd, join your fellow Rotaractors at Dargan’s Irish Pub and Restaurant (18 E. Ortega) for some tasty food and drinks and a chance to win some cool prizes benefiting the Santa Barbara Animal Rescue. We’ll meet at 6:45 in the front of the main entrance of Dargan’s (behind Urban Outfitter’s.) There will also be live music from DJ Matt Armor, Lone Angels (80’s tribute band) and KELP.
