Fundraiser
 

Fundraiser Chairman: Dude Payne
Committee: Suzanne Goodson, Karyn Kadera, Nancy Kanter, Linda Wright
 
Don’t miss F.O.R.’s fun-filled two-day fundraising event
 
Festivites start Saturday (10/30) with the first annual “Ya Gotta Regatta”. Are you wondering what is a “Ya Gotta Regatta”? This is where participants travel by river or road in any type of watercraft or street legal vehicle to designated checkpoints near the river. This is not a race of speed; rather the goal is to collect signatures on game cards which will be provided to each participant during registration. The cards need to be returned Sunday at the Armadillo Ballroom in exchange for playing cards -- best hand wins! 
 
On Sunday, the next day, the Halloween Fundraiser starts at noon with a roast beef meal and silent auction followed by a live auction. The “Ya Gotta Regatta” winner, raffle winners and best Halloween costume will be announced and prizes awarded.
