THE LUNCHEON

Reserved tables with logo recognition are available with our VIP packages.

Our silent auction features around 18 carefully curated baskets donated by local businesses, sponsors, and Rockton Lions Club members.

In place of 50/50 tickets, we offer 50/50 golf balls along with a special appearance by the Rockton Fire Department. The RFD will dump the balls from their aerial platform. Whichever ball lands in the flagged hole below will determine the winner. Balls are $2 each or 11 for $20.

THE SCHOLARSHIP

The Jack Lovejoy Scholarship Fund is a career and technical education scholarship awarded annually to graduating seniors of Hononegah High School and South Beloit High School. Applicants must be pursuing a career that requires a post-high school professional certificate and/or an associate’s degree and typically does not require a bachelor’s degree.

100% of the proceeds from this event are donated to the scholarship fund.
