Oyster Roast Golf Cart Fundraiser

The 2019 Golf Cart Fundraiser is off and running. In 2018, we were given 3,000 tickets to sell. Even though it has never been done before, (NBDB) we sold out. This was a combined effort of all of our great volunteers. It was a super effort, even though we lost 2 days of Spring SOS due to storms and all of Fall SOS due to a hurricane. But enough of 2018. This year, the Board has decided to increase the number of tickets to 3,200. Because we were able to get the cart and the tickets earlier this year, we have already sold 372 tickets. A huge event for us this year was the brunch. With the purchase of 4 tickets, you were entered to win a world-famous carrot cake baked by Lori Setzer. We had 27 entries. Because of the success of this event, we are doubling down at this year’s Oyster Roast. If you buy 4 golf cart tickets, you will be entered to win one of two cakes; a carrot cake or a strawberry cake.
Remember, the Golf Cart Fundraiser helps pay for all of our events (Brunches, Oyster Roast, Christmas Dinner etc.). So please stop and see us at the Roast, buy 4 tickets, and be entered to win one of the cakes. If you can’t make the roast, we will be selling tickets at the St. Patrick’s Day Parade. If every member would buy just one ticket, we would be 25% sold.
Finally, we hear all the time that “I don’t need a golf cart”. Please know that we have people lined up to buy it from you. It is a fully loaded cart with a retail value of $5,500.
Looking forward to seeing everyone.
