Ponte Vedra Beach Rotary Club holding luxury trip raffle

Posted

A luxury vacation stay in one of six exotic locales will go to the winner of the Rotary Club of Ponte Vedra Beach’s annual trip raffle, tickets for which are now on sale.

Tickets for the trip raffle are $100 each or five for $400 and may be purchased online at mineralcitycelebration.com/raffle-trips. The winner will be able to choose from six exotic destinations: Amalfi, Italy; Barcelona, Spain; the French Alps; Croatia; a championship golf experience in Scotland; or a luxury sportscar racing experience in Las Vegas.

Full descriptions of each trip are available on the Mineral City Celebration website, mineralcitycelebration.com.

The winner of the raffle will be announced live at the Rotary Club’s annual Mineral City Celebration gala; the winner does not need to be present to win. Proceeds from the trip raffle benefit more than a dozen Beaches-area charities.

To be held Saturday, April 5, at the Northeast Florida Regional Airport on U.S. 1 in St. Augustine, this year’s Mineral City Celebration will feature the theme of Concours d’Rotary, with guests enjoying cocktails, hors d’oeuvres, a silent auction and entertainment by the Crescendo Amelia Big Band.

A special highlight of the gala will be the presentation of the “Rock of the Community Award” to Brian Sexton in recognition of his 30 years as the “Voice of the Jaguars” and extensive community service activities.

The Mineral City Celebration is the signature annual fundraising event for the Rotary Club of Ponte Vedra Beach. Proceeds from the event have benefited more than two dozen local nonprofit organizations and charities. Major sponsors of the 2025 Mineral City Celebration include THE PLAYERS Championship, PNC Bank, Best Fence & Rail and Autrey Research.
