Sports vs Rock Quiz Night | Saturday 18 September 2021
An opportunity was presented to Elizabeth Quay, Matilda Bay & the Perth Rotary Clubs for us to collaborate and “road test” a fundraising event which could be utilised by any clubs around the traps. We anticipate a hilarious night of music & sporting brain-busters & fundraising for all. Should you wish to come dressed as your favourite "Rock Star or Sports Star" you will go into the draw for a fabulous prize worthy of the effort to dress up.
Members are invited to start organising their tables and book to attend the inaugural Rotary Sports Vs Rock Quiz Night. Tables of 10 and/or individual tickets are available by clicking on the link https://www.trybooking.com/BTKUB. Your ticket includes a platter of food/per table and automatic entry into the draw for an overnight stay at the Duxton. Should members wish to make a night of it and stay at the Duxton Hotel, please let the booking clerks know you are a Rotarian to receive a 10% discount off best available rates.
Gala Bid will provide items for auction - silent and live.
Profits raised on the evening will be directed to Australian Rotary Health australianrotaryhealth.org.au. and Rotary Community Projects from the participating clubs - Perth; Matilda Bay & Elizabeth Quay.
