This Week’s Speaker: Davis Walker
Join us this week as we welcome Davis Walker, Director of Partnerships & Premium Sales for Oak View Group in Mobile.
Davis leads corporate partnership and premium seating efforts for the new Regions Arena, the historic Saenger Theatre, and the Mobile Convention Center. Before coming to Mobile, he worked in partnership sales with Enmarket Arena in Savannah, Georgia, and the Texas Stars in Austin, Texas.
Throughout his career in sports and live entertainment, Davis has helped local and regional businesses develop meaningful partnerships that connect their brands with venues, teams, and the communities they serve. We look forward to learning more about his work and the exciting future of entertainment in downtown Mobile!
Taste of Rotary Updates
🎟️ Help Us Sell Raffle Tickets at Art Walk!
We need a few friendly Rotarians to help sell Taste of Rotary raffle tickets at Fairhope’s First Friday Art Walk on Friday, September 4, beginning at 5:30 p.m.
Come connect with the community, promote our biggest fundraiser of the year, and help make Taste of Rotary a success. Even a little time makes a big difference—no sales experience required, just a smile and some Rotary spirit!
Wine Raffle Tickets
Members may pick up wine raffle tickets from David Harbison or Tim McGuire. Please connect with them soon to get your tickets and help support our club’s largest fundraiser!
Admission Ticket Buy-Back Program
As in past years, the club may have an opportunity to buy back Taste of Rotary admission tickets from members to sell to the public or provide to event sponsors. While there is no guarantee that tickets will be needed, interested members should email Noah Funderburg at pronoah@me.com.
Names will be added to a list, and members will be contacted on a first-come, first-served basis if tickets are needed. Members whose admission tickets are purchased back will instead be charged for 15 raffle tickets.
Noah is out this week while recovering from COVID. Next week will be the final opportunity to pick up tickets at a club meeting. After that, all remaining tickets will be mailed to members.
Help Us Find Sponsors!
Taste of Rotary’s success depends on the involvement of every Point Clear Rotarian. We are asking members to identify local businesses, organizations, professional contacts, and community partners that may be interested in sponsoring this year’s event.
Sponsorships benefit the Point Clear Rotary Foundation and help fund scholarships, youth leadership opportunities, and grants for organizations serving our community.
Use the button below to download the sponsorship form and share it with prospective sponsors. Every conversation and connection helps expand our community impact!
