Bettendorf Rotary preparing for Lobsterfest

The Bettendorf Rotary Club will host its annual Lobsterfest fundraiser on Friday, June 13, from 5:30-9 p.m. at the Waterfront Convention Center in downtown Bettendorf.

The event aims to raise funds for the Bettendorf Rotary Club’s Charity Committee, which awards grants to some 20-25 nonprofit organizations in the Quad Cities every year. Last year’s Lobsterfest raised a net of $124,000.

Lobsterfest will feature a meal of a 5-ounce lobster tail and a 5-ounce beef tenderloin, along with side dishes and dessert. Hosted wine, champagne, seltzer drinks and beer will be available.

Attendees can participate in a mobile silent auction and a live auction featuring vacation packages and other items. Additional activities include a photo booth, a caricature artist, a raffle, and a wine pull.

Tickets for Lobsterfest are $125 per person or $1,000 for a table of eight.  For more information and registration, visit www.lobsterfestqc.com.
