Pleasanton North Rotary Annual “A Starry Night” Gala Event Coming Soon

Community Encouraged to Donate Goods and Services, Purchase Tickets

PLEASANTON, CA -- August 28, 2014 -- Pleasanton North Rotary, the leading community organization in Pleasanton for service-minded professionals, today announced details for the Club’s annual “A Starry Night” evening gala. The event, to be held at Barone’s Restaurant on Saturday, September 20, 2014, will reprise the wildly successful “A Starry Night in the Caribbean” theme for the evening. The evening brings together food, fun and fundraising for numerous local and international service projects supported by Pleasanton North Rotary (PNR) Club.

This year, the event’s “Fund-a-Need” charity will be Agape Villages, a regional program that mobilizes community resources for disadvantaged children and their families.

With the goal of “fun with a purpose,” A Starry Night in the Caribbean looks to be both entertaining and beneficial to the community.

The evening’s agenda currently consists of the following, all under the stars, on the patio at Barone’s, in downtown Pleasanton.
- Passed Hors d’ouvres and champagne
- Live music both steel drum and a local band
- Both live and silent auctions
- Big Frank Jakubka as our auctioneer
