Boat Race Ham & Bean Supper

The Rochester Memorial Day Boat Race (RMDBR) Ham and Bean Supper will be held Saturday May 23 at the Rochester Senior Center, 65 Dexter Lane. The supper will be served from 5:00 to 7:00 pm and tickets can be purchased at the door. Adults, $10.00 and children under twelve are only $5.00. There is the option to eat in, eat on the patio if weather permits (not sure about this one because of the construction), or take-out. Beans baked by the best bean bakers in town, coleslaw, potato salad, rolls and brown bread. And to top it all off, apple crisp for dessert. Proceeds from the supper help offset the expenses of the race.

Also, there will be raffles available for each of two carbon fiber racing paddles and a silent auction for each of two additional paddles made by Bill Watling III. A red, white and blue Afghan made by Cecelia Hall will also be raffled. Tickets for the raffles will be sold at the boat race registration session and at the Ham & Bean supper. The winners will be drawn at the supper.

This is the 92nd anniversary of the race. Enjoy a great meal at one of the important social events of the year in our area. The more, the merrier. For additional information please contact Arthur Benner, Chairman, RMDBR, 508-763-2024 or email, artbenner@comcast.net.
