New members
Welcome, to our newest members—Donna Errera-Ott and Heather Zabski! It's a joy to have both of you at our meetings and work alongside us as we find ways to serve our community.
Looking for sponsors
We are working on an exciting outdoor craft beer event and are looking for sponsors to help us raise funds to support our charitable causes. The event will be in Carpenter Park on July 17 and will be limited to 150 attendees. We are opening up sponsorships now and will soon start selling general tickets.
Breweries
This will be a one-of-a-kind beer event where you will blind taste test different local craft beers in four styles, then vote for your favorites. No fancy labels or names to sway your opinion—just the taste. Local brewers will be awarded for their hard work brewing amazing selections. We already have several great local breweries donating beer for this cause, including Black and Gray, Sew Hop'd, Wild Onion, Riverlands, and 93 Octane.
Sponsorships
If you would like to support this effort and have your company's logo on our promotional materials, download our sponsorship form and get in touch with us soon. Learn more here >
Tickets
Our 5K race will be back this year at Raceway Woods. Mark your calendars for the second Saturday in August. (Aug 14, 2021). We will be adding more details to our site (including a registration link) soon. Let us know if you or your business would like to sponsor the race to help us raise money for buying winter coats for Carpentersville families in need. As always, this is a non-profit event to raise money for charitable causes.
Super Bowl Squares Raises $4,600
This year our fun paid off for everyone. $5,400 was paid out to lucky winners, and the rest went to our causes (including FISH Food Pantry and Boys and Girls Club of Dundee).
Learn more about the game on our Super Bowl Squares event page.
Congrats to this year's winners.
To our generous supporters,
As this most interesting of years comes to a close it will come as no surprise to anyone that 2020 has offered us one last challenge. Our small but dedicated club has agreed to deliver a hot meal to individuals and families in need on Christmas morning again this year. The count as of this writing is approximately 300 meals and is likely to grow before the holiday. Our usual source for the dinner has fallen through due to COVID-19 and we want to make a direct appeal to you to help fund this effort. Any amount will help. The target donation is the cost of one meal or $10. We will be working with our friends at Rosie O'Hare's Pub who will be making the meals.
Over 200 coats were distributed in Carpentersville in partnership with the Boys & Girls Club of Dundee.
Here's just a few of them:
One lucky winner will be trying a few of the rarest bourbons from a collection that would cost more than $3,300 and many hours of searching to procure. This flight contains nine very special bourbons in a hard-sided case that also contains a Glencairn whiskey glass.
Each raffle ticket is a chance to win and a great way to support our charitable efforts, which include FISH Food Pantry, Operation Warm Coats for kids in Carpentersville and many more.
Winner picked on December 19, 2020 and can pick up before Christmas.
