Come out for Rock ’n Rotary this Sat., March 12

By Beth Gibson on March 10, 2016

The Gloucester and Gloucester Point Rotary Clubs’ annual Rock ’n Rotary charity event is rescheduled for 6 to 10 p.m. Saturday, March 12, at the Abingdon Ruritan Club, after the January event was postponed due to snow.

All previously purchased tickets for January will be honored. Remaining tickets are almost sold out. Only 16 tickets are now available for purchase at Gibson Singleton Virginia Injury Attorneys. Any remaining tickets will be available at the door.

Tickets are $25, which includes two drinks and a souvenir cup. Cocktails and a silent auction will begin at 6 p.m., followed by dinner and live music from 7 p.m. until 10 p.m.

Gloucester’s Juan Carillo will provide food for purchase, including appetizers, gourmet burgers and brisket from his newest restaurant, Aspen Burger Company in New Kent.

The Ballast Band will perform live, along with several special guests. Ballast Band members are Matt Williams, guitar and vocals; Frank West, keyboards and vocals; Ken Gibson, drums; and Charles Records, bass guitar and vocals.

Silent auction items will include an oyster roast from the James Brothers Oyster Company, private flight lessons, and multiple restaurant and wine gift packages. All proceeds from Rock ‘n Rotary will go to local charities and to Rotary International’s campaign to end polio.
