Dave Hannan, district governor of the Rochester-area District 7120, and his wife Pam have sent us us their reservation RSVPs for our 60th anniversary dinner. So, what about you?

We’re hoping to get a solid headcount ASAP so we can let our party planners, chef Jim Mendrysa of Talk of the Town catering, and our special surprise entertainer know how many people they can expect to join us for the gala event.

As noted in prior messages, here are the details:

When: 6 p.m. Thursday, March 5

Where: Comfort Inn & Suites, Miller Road, just off I-90 Exit 10

Who: SRC members, family, friends, and prospective Rotarians

Why: Because we’re celebrating 60 years of community service

What price: $45 per person through February 14, and $55 after that date.

The final deadline for reservations is Thursday, February 20. Reservations will cover a wine-and-soft drinks open bar (plus cocktail cash bar), a lavish buffet spread, live entertainment, and a few surprises.

We’re certainly hoping to have as many current members, past members — especially part presidents, and prospective members join us for this very special event, along with family, friends, neighbors, and colleagues who we welcome with open arms. Please spread the word and get your reservations emailed ASAP to event coordinator Bill Dowd at BillDowd4Troy@gmail.
