Funnest Fundraiser Around

Looking for a wonderful way to celebrate spring? Seeking local, worthy causes to support? Interested in becoming a volunteer for one or more local “Service Above Self” projects?

Gather up your family and friends and join the Rotary Club of Acton-Boxborough for our 2024 Bid for Brighter Futures: The Funnest Fundraiser Around on Friday, March 21 from 5:30 to 10:00 p.m. at the Boxboro Regency Hotel and Conference Center, in the Grand Ballroom and Terrace.

Tickets:

Tickets are $60 each, or $480 for a table of eight (8). To buy your tickets now, click here. The deadline for ticket purchases is March 17. For more information, contact Dean Roberts, president of the Rotary Club of Acton-Boxborough, at 843-422-0978 mobile/text or abrotaryclub@gmail.com.

You’ll enjoy a buffet dinner and cash bar. Then, laugh, be entertained, and participate in a trivia game. For even more fun, you’ll have a chance to win one of many great raffle prizes.

Entertainment:

Trivia/game show host Bobby Roast Beef will entertain us with his audience-interactive Game Night. The “Bobby Roast Beef” entity came to life in 2005, when Rob Charette was playing drums for local alternative-rock rock band Prescription America. It was both a play on the character Johnny Roast Beef in the movie GoodFellas, and a tongue-and-cheek joke about Rob's "beefy" physique. And it stuck - and since then it's how Rob has been known in the entertainment world. To watch Bobby Roast Beef perform at Plan B Burger Bar in Springfield, click here.
