 | The Pleasanton North Rotary Club will host its first PNR Spaghetti Dinner & Family Carnival from 4 to 7 p.m. Sunday at the Veterans Memorial Building in downtown Pleasanton.
The event will help in the club's support of community youth programs, including the Interact Club at Foothill High School and the Abbie 4-H Club, said Tina Case, president of Pleasanton North Rotary.
"The event will give various local youth groups a chance to raise money by selling desserts and operating carnival games," she said.
The fundraiser is also geared to be an inexpensive family outing, Case noted. Admission is $10 per person. Children under 10 will be admitted for free.
Dinner includes a mixed salad with Italian dressing, rigatoni with marinara sauce, toasted garlic bread and fruit punch. Refreshments, including water and wine, will be available for an additional charge. In addition to carnival games, face painting will be available for kids, and a bonus raffle will qualify every family to win a dinner for eight at Girasole Grill in Pleasanton.
Tickets may be purchased with cash or credit card at the event. For more information, see the Pleasanton North Rotary website (www.pnr-rotary.org) or Facebook page (http://www.facebook.com/pages/Pleasanton-North-Rotary).
The Veterans Memorial Building is located at 301 Main St.Are you receiving Express, our free daily e-mail edition? See a sample and sign-up for Express.
