FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:
Coastal Georgia Rotary Clubs Announce 2011 Play It Forward Concert
(SAVANNAH, GA) The Rotary Clubs of Coastal Georgia are pleased to announce the Second Annual Rotarians Play It Forward Concert on Saturday, April 23, 2011, 4:00-7:00 p.m., at the Morris Center at Trustees Garden in Savannah, GA.
The title sponsor for the 2011 Rotarians Play it Forward event is Wells Fargo. This generous sponsorship allows virtually all other funds raised by sponsors and ticket sales to go directly to the Rotary Foundation and its goal to eradicate polio worldwide. In addition, these funds raised will be more than doubled by the William Gates Foundation. The Rotary Foundation is a 501c3 organization.
The 2011 PIF Concert will feature an array of performances by prominent local musicians and talented Rotarians. The evening will also include a Rotary Dancers presentation, food, beverages and large screen video games. Plans also include a silent auction featuring artwork by Rotary Club members.
“Nothing brings people together better than music,” says Dave Legasse, chair of the 2011 PIF concert and a member of the Savannah West Club. “The first annual event featured talent from four local Rotary Clubs. The second annual event will feature talent from 10 area Rotary Clubs! This is the first time that all 10 area clubs will collaborate on a single Fundraising effort.”
Rotarians serving in committee roles for the 2011 PIF event include Rotary Savannah Club members Nina Gompels (food and beverage chair), Henry Whitfield (logistics chair), Steve Stephens (production chair), Carolyn Trosdal (sponsorships chair) and Ken Carter (talent chair), as well as Savannah Sunrise Club members Clete Bergen (Rotary Dancing with the Stars chair) and Pam Brandt (ticket sales chair).
The Rotary Clubs of Coastal Georgia comprise the Effingham Sunrise, Effingham County, Richmond Hill, Savannah (downtown), Savannah East, Savannah South, Savannah Sunrise, Savannah West, Skidaway and Pooler clubs. Rotary Club members work to combat hunger, improve health and sanitation, provide education and job training, promote peace, eradicate polio and assist in many other local programs under the motto Service Above Self.
