 Posted: Thu Oct 24, 2013 11:54 pm Post subject: ROCK THE ROVERS 10th ANNIVERSARY CELEBRATIONS |
 |
|
I had a meeting with the management of styx/kittys on thursday and we have put a series of events together with dates provisionally booked in to celebrate 10 years of rock the rovers.All the things tie in not just with the gig but also community,being scottish,music,sport and raith rovers f.c.It is also 20 years since raith won the coca cola so i am hoping the club and the legends from that team will be involved in some if not all the events.Details and how to get involved etc etc will be announced in the new year but here is the dates subject to confirmation.
MAY 24th - POOL/SNOOKER,DARTS and DOMS at STYX [teams comp and singles comps]
JUNE 27th - SCOTTISH NIGHT with scottish bands and solo`s providing the entertainment.MORE KILTS THE MERRIER. 
JULY 25th - SPORTSPERSONS DINNER in THE VICTORIA HOTEL with auction prizes,guest speakers etc etc.
AUGUST 31st - ROCK THE ROVERS 10 with 7 or 8 bands in KITTY`S 3 or 4 solo artists and dj in KANDY [golden oldies tunes but mainly 80s if i get ma way ]
We are also going to have a community orientated fun day during the school summer holidays for the kids at a venue to be confirmed.This will incorporate various things inc a visit from the services like the army,fire brigade,police plus bouncy castles and many other things to keep the bairns amused for a few hours.All these events may vary slightly but it gives you an idea of what we have planned.The money raised from the events will be split between various charitable organisations that we support and of course raith rovers fc.If anyone has any ideas about these events or would like to sponsor,donate,support or help out in any way then please by all means get in touch with me.The events will all be confirmed in the new year but these are the dates provisionally booked.

I hope that when the details are all confirmed for these events that folk will show some interest especially as they could very well bring a lot of money into the club aswell as the charities that are chosen.

Where is the Tartan Army night, Styx or Kitty's?
Also, is the 24th May confirmed for the pub sports tournament? I'm looking to have the Ronnie Coyle 7s that day. |
