Rotary Club of Twin Falls After Hours is excited to present the 8th Annual Martini Tasting/Masquerade Ball Fundraiser, Friday, February 21, 2020, at Canyon Crest Event Center, from 6:00-11:30 p.m. This annual event attracts large crowds and is one of the most entertaining fundraisers in Twin Falls.
We team up with the best Magic Valley Mixologists to raise money for local charities. This year’s theme will be Roaring 20’s! Guests dress in costumes (including masks), sample martinis to vote on their favorites. In addition to the fabulous martini tasting, Appetizers are provided with a chocolate fountain for a sweet finish. DJ Broc will keep the crowd rocking and dancing.
Twin Falls Rotary After Hours is focused on community involvement and works closely with local charities. This year’s funds will help SHP Sleep in Heavenly Peace & other local charities in our community.
Individual tickets can be purchased through me at klrainbow49@gmail.com and anyone interested in becoming a sponsor is also welcome to contact me. All proceeds from this annual event go to youth groups in Gem County.
Last year we gave checks totally $47,000 to various youth groups or entities that support the youth of our county. It's a fun evening with a fabulous steak dinner, silent auction, dessert auction and, of course, a live auction.
More information will be available next month so circle the date and come join us in Emmett on May 2!
A top priority for Rotary is growing and diversifying our membership to make sure we reflect the communities we serve and are inclusive of all cultures, experiences, and identities.
