The Greater Jamestown AM Rotary will host the annual Bill Briggs-Tim Grace Memorial Football Party, its largest fundraiser of the year, on Sunday, Oct. 22.

The party will be held at Ellicottville Brewing on Chautauqua in Bemus Point during the Buffalo Bills' game against the New England Patriots. Proceeds support youth and community programs throughout the region. Last year the club hosted about 200 people at the same location and raised thousands of dollars for local nonprofits.

Doors open at noon with kickoff at 1 p.m. A buffet including 20 roasted turkeys will be served from 2 to 3:30 p.m. Tickets are $50 each and include two drinks, food, and the chance to win up to $1,000 in cash prizes. Winners do not need to be present. For those who want to support the event but can't attend can buy a ticket for a chance to win or donate items to be given away during the Chinese auction.

Tickets can be purchased at Bridgeview One Stop or any Chautauqua Brick location, through any Greater Jamestown AM Rotarian, or by calling Sarah Gilbert at 716-485-3933.
