Swimming, Croquet, Cornhole, Treats from the Tiki Bar and Grill, and more……
Sunday, September 13th from 3 p.m. ‘til 8 p.m. ‘ish
Mark your calendars now to join us for a Fall Family Fun affair for the Rotary Club of Lexington, held at Spindletop Hall on 13 September 2009. As a kickoff to our fundraising efforts for 2010, we’ll have a door prize drawing for five lucky Rotarians to win a ticket to the 2010 Sweetheart Soiree, benefitting the Surgery on Sunday Lexington Rotary Club Endowment Fund.
Just a short 7 miles from Downtown Lexington, Spindletop Hall is a bluegrass treasure. We’ll get to experience it all on Sunday September 13th from 3 p.m. until whenever your fellow Rotarian Gerald Marvel kicks you out (not likely)! All you’ve got to do is come, and at only $5 per adult and $3 per child, you won’t want to miss out. There will be a Croquet tutorial and play beginning at 3 p.m. (signup strongly encouraged) on the area’s only professional quality croquet court. For those not interested in wearing the whites (just kidding, Croquet Whites are not required for this event), we’ll have a Cornhole Tournament beginning at 4 p.m. Pick a partner, or let us pick you a partner, and get ready to toss ‘til you drop. We’ll have a small entry fee to fund the prize for the winning team.
There’ll also be swimming (the last chance in Lexington for the season), tennis, and board games, and all around fun for the kids. We’ll be entertained by the musical genius of another fellow Rotarian, and be able to order a la carte from the great Tiki Bar menu at Spindletop. The menu includes Angus burgers, salmon burgers, quesadillas, vegetarian options, and much more. And lest we forget, there’ll be beverages aplenty, and a great selection including specialty cocktails (full bar) and smoothies, for the young and the young at heart. There’ll be a Rotarian’s Special to boot!
Join your fellow Rotarians, and bring the family, for a laid back afternoon of fellowship and fun and a chance to win a ticket to the Sweetheart Soiree 2010, a great event for a great cause. Please make your reservations (so the Spindletop Service Team can properly prepare ) by calling Spindletop Hall at 859-255-2777 and letting them know how many adults and how many children you’ll be bringing for the fun, and if you would like to sign up for the Croquet challenge or the Cornhole Tournament.
