As a proud member of The Rotary Club of Burlington Central, I am writing to you about one of our Club’s largest annual events and Burlington's Ultimate Summer Party.
Since 1999 our Club has hosted Lakeside a-la-Carte, and through this event have raised hundreds of thousands of dollars for projects and special needs in our community.

The day will be Tuesday Sept. 5, 2017, at Crosswinds Golf and Country Club. Cost will be $82, all in for golf, practice range, cart, and as many swings as you want to take. We will play a Scramble format, with every group having some experienced as well as less experienced players, so everyone can have lots of fun and not care that much about the golf.
The day is open to club members, friends and family.
As in the past we will tee off mid-day so we can enjoy a cold drink afterwards while the sun is still shining.
Please let John Kubacki know, as soon as possible, if you wish to play, and whether you will be bringing guests.
