Local rotary clubs are inviting football fans and seafood lovers to their annual football season kick-off party on Saturday, Aug. 17 at Otey’s Tavern from 6-9 p.m.
Boiling N’ Bragging, which benefits the Critical Care Transport program at Children’s of Alabama, will bring football fans of all ages together for this annual event.
In addition to a low country boil, guests will enjoy live music, $1 drink specials, kids’ activities, sports trivia and a celebrity appearance by Lance Taylor from WJOX’s Roundtable.
“We are thrilled about this partnership and couldn’t be more excited about this event,” said Jason Peterson RN, transport coordinator. “It’s a great opportunity for people in the community to not only come together to celebrate the start of football season but also make a great impact on our program and the children we serve.”
Since 1993, the Critical Care Transport team has worked to meet the specific needs of transporting more than 1,000 critically ill and injured children each year. It serves as a mobile extension of the hospital.
Team members include highly trained registered nurses and respiratory therapists with the knowledge, understanding and skills necessary to provide age-appropriate care.
Guests are encouraged to wear their team’s colors. Tickets are $20 in advance or $25 at the door, and kids (10 and younger) get in free. Street parking will be available. Register online at boilingnbragging.org.
Sponsorship opportunities are available by contacting Kelley Burgess at kelley.burgess@childrensal.org or 638-9008.
