News from: The Boys & Girls Club of Cathedral City
ANNOUNCING THE 8th Annual Sammy’s International Meatball Festival
The 8th Annual Sammy’s International Meatball Festival will be held Sunday, October 4, 2020 from 2pm to 3pm. The Boys and Girls Club of Cathedral City’s (BGCCCity) annual fundraiser has been converted to an online “virtual event”. We cannot host the traditional head-to-head meatball judging, so we’ve organized a peer-to-peer fundraising event where individual participants campaign for ‘votes’ as donations to BGCCCity from their family, friends, and associates (1 vote for each $1 raised). The virtual fundraiser will culminate on October 4th, in a one-hour event filled with live action, inspiring testimonials, videos about our Virtual Club Experience, and videos of participants preparing their mouth-watering entries. It promises to be both a fun and inspiring event.
When: Vote for your favorite contestants starting Sunday September 20th; at www.bgcccity.org
On line Event 2pm-3pm on Sunday October 4th, at www.bgcccity.org
Location: online at www.bgcccity.org
Admission: free
BGCCCity, as with many businesses, is not open to in-house services because the current pandemic precautions. That has not stopped the Club from launching a Virtual Club Experience serving our Club members with self-directed virtual activities.
Proceeds will benefit the Club’s mission: To inspire and enable all young people, especially from disadvantaged circumstances, to realize their full potential as productive, responsible, and caring citizens. The Boys & Girls Club of Cathedral City is a youth-serving organization that provides opportunities for a Great Future through a safe place, with caring mentors, and life-enhancing programs. All donations support on-going Club programs and services that promote academic success, healthy lifestyles, and good character and citizenship. The Boys and Girls Club gives hope to an entire city and this fund raiser will help these positive experiences to continue.
Opened in 1980, later this year the Boys and Girls Club of Cathedral City will celebrate 40 years of service to the community.
