Members of Zonta Club of Santa Clarita Valley and guests will gather Saturday, Feb. 17, at the Elk’s Lodge in Canyon Country for the club’s annual Night at the Races in-house fundraiser.

The Zonta Club of SCV brings service, advocacy and awareness of our international mission to life in ways that directly serve our community.

Providing hands-on service delivery while funding the work, dreams, and goals of others to improve the lives of women, our members find the right niche to meet their interests, time commitment, and financial support.

The fundraiser runs from 6:00 – 9:00 p.m. at the lodge, 17766 Sierra Highway. Invitations are open to Elk’s and Zonta club members, friends, family members and guests.

The $25-per-person admission includes a buffet supper, races, and prizes for best decorated table and winning number of chips at the end of the evening. Races are “run” by volunteers “mounted” on decorated stick horses, who move along a numbered course according to the throw of giant foam dice.

Table reservations are $250 for a table of eight guests, including wine and reserved table perks.

Proceeds will support Zonta’s Conference Account, which helps defray the cost of member registration at Zonta’s District 9 conference, in October every other year. Payment and RSVP can be mailed to Darleen Lyons, 22054 Parvin Dr., Santa Clarita, 91350.
