During the evening of Wednesday October 16th at Narberth RFC a group of Rotarians and Guests were hosted by RFC Chairman Jon Dodd. The comfortable Lounge Bar was used to display banners from the highly successful Narberth Outdoor Rock 2024 which took place in August.
Proceeds from this joint effort, which was produced by the committees of Narberth & Whitland Rotary and Narberth RFC, were distributed to several deserving charitable causes and presented by Rotarian President Paul Crawford.
Each of the organisations sent a representative to receive a cheque and afterwards, enjoyed a buffet prepared by the RFC staff making the evening sociable and enjoyable. President Paul thanked all of the organisations for the charitable work which they each perform in their various communities.
Narberth Outdoor Rock has proved to be one of the most effective fundraisers for many years. Without the backing of sponsors underwriting some of the basic costs of the Outdoor Stage and the Musical Acts we may never have taken the chance of committing large sums of money to put on the show. Puffin Produce, Molson Coors Beverage Company and Pembrokeshire Creamery were among many sponsors of the event. We look forward to their continued sponsorship, the aim of which is to raise funds for deserving Charities and Charitable causes in our community.
The beneficiaries this year from funds raised by Narberth Outdoor Rock were: Paul Sartori Foundation, QEHS/Canoflan Elfed and Sandy Bear. Additional funds raised from the Il Giro Bike Ride and Food Festival Park & Ride were presented to the Narberth Foodbank and Prostate Cymru.
