Annual Fund SHARE Fundraiser Red Sox Tickets

Let's start the new Rotary year with a quick July fundraiser for the Annual Fund SHARE

We have 2 tickets each for the following 8 Red Sox games at Fenway Park to give away to raise money for our Rotary Foundation:
  • August 9/10/11 Houston Astros vs Boston Red Sox
  • August 23/24/25 Arizona Diamondbacks vs Boston Red Sox
  • August 27/28 Toronto Blue Jays vs Boston Red Sox
The seats are located in row 1 of the Aura Club (formerly Home Plate Pavilion Club) and have some of the best views in the ballpark (see photo on the left). The face value of these tickets is $235 per seat.
 
To participate in this fundraiser you need to submit a bid in which you commit to donate at least $400 to the Annual Fund SHARE (for both tickets together). The higher your bid, the more likely you are going to get the tickets. Please reach out to DRFC Alexander Falk via email before July 31 with a list of your preferred dates and your bid commitment.

Rotaract Summer Hike
On July 7, the Boston Rotaract 2024-25 tenure commenced with a memorable hike to Middlesex Fells Reservoir. About a dozen Rotaractors turned out for this fun event.  What began as a planned 3-hour trek from Oak Grove to the reservoir turned into a rewarding 6-hour expedition, underscored by the initiative to collect trash along our return route.
 
Upon reaching the picnic spot, participants enjoyed a cultural exchange showcasing diverse Rotaracting styles and traditions from around the world. Highlights included performances of dances and songs, as well as sampling snacks from countries such as Nepal, the United States, Mexico, Iran, and India. Everyone was thankful for hosting the event and looking forward to more of this.
