Gather up your family and friends and join the Rotary Club of Acton-Boxborough for Bid For Brighter Futures: The Funnest Fundraiser Around! on Friday, March 21 from 5:30 to 10:00 p.m. at the Boxboro Regency Hotel and Conference Center, in the Grand Ballroom and Terrace.

You’ll enjoy a buffet dinner and cash bar. Then, laugh, be entertained, and participate in our audience-interactive Game Night. For even more fun, you’ll have a chance to win one of many great raffle prizes.

Entertainment:

Trivia/game show host Bobby Roast Beef will entertain us with his audience-interactive Game Night. The “Bobby Roast Beef” entity came to life in 2005, when Rob Charette was playing drums for local alternative-rock rock band Prescription America. It was both a play on the character Johnny Roast Beef in the movie GoodFellas, and a tongue-and-cheek joke about Rob's "beefy" physique. And it stuck - and since then it's how Rob has been known in the entertainment world. To watch Bobby Roast Beef perform at Plan B Burger Bar in Springfield, click here.
