Message from Our President

Dear Friends,

It's been almost 15 years since our first Crab Feed was held at St. Eugene's Becker Center. Each successive year has brought another Crab Feed with great new ideas and very memorable and fun evenings. We have always had one goal in mind: to raise the funds that do the incredible service work in our community. Our Crab Feed and Auction has netted over $35,000 in a single night. We should all be proud of these efforts! If we all keep in mind that "with everyone doing a little, together we can all do a lot", we will have a GREAT CRAB FEED party on January 17th, 1998.

Thank you,

Jim Valinoti
President, Santa Rosa West Rotary

The Poyntlyss Sistars Band!
Will Entertain You!

If you love the great songs of the 50's and 60's, then you are in for a super treat. The Poyntlyss Sistars bring refreshing four-part harmonies and bouncy choreography to their renditions of the classic hits from groups like the Shirelles, the Supremes and the Crystals, to name a few. The band will play during the dinner and return after the live auction for dancing from 9:30 to 11:00 pm. Get ready to kick up your heels and "let the good times roll".
