This year’s 45th Annual Rotary Club of Galveston Chili Supper is set for Wednesday, January 25, at Ball High School.
For over four decades, The Rotary Club of Galveston has hosted its annual Chili Supper fundraiser, and again this year, this very popular event will be held in the Ball High School Cafeteria, 4115 Avenue O, with serving hours 5-8pm.
In addition to great “homemade” chili and rice and all the condiments, guests can purchase tamales to accompany their chili supper, as well as a variety of homemade and specialty desserts.
Many of the delicious desserts available for sale will be made from the Rotarians’ family recipes – handed down from generation to generation.
Guests may dine in or bring containers for “to-go” orders. Bio-degradable “Take out” containers will also be available.
For those patrons who choose to enjoy their chili supper with friends in the Ball High cafeteria – you’re welcome to return for more chili as often as you like.
A special treat for dine-in patrons will again be live music and song provided by Rotarians Jim Byrom and Jim Galbraith.
Also, back by popular demand… Friends of the Rosenberg Library will again be giving away children’s books throughout the evening that include a great variety of books to interest all age groups of children and youth.
New for 2023: Patrons will have the opportunity to purchase raffle tickets for the chance to win exciting prizes such as a $2,000 Royal Caribbean Cruise gift certificate, BBQ dinner for 20 guests, a $300 Gift Card tree, and many more great prizes. Tickets will be sold for $25 each or 5 tickets for $100. Don’t miss this opportunity!
Proceeds from this annual fundraiser will benefit the Rotary Club of Galveston’s Galveston Rotary Foundation, Inc., which in turn sponsors and supports many essential programs and projects that benefit the Galveston community. Since the creation of the Club’s Foundation in 1989, over $700,000 has been granted to support local scholarships, initiatives, programs, and projects that benefit and enhance the health, education and welfare of Galveston’s citizens and community.
