We had over 70 folks join us for our first Winter Ball! Together we raised just over $2k and filled one and a half donation bins for the Brighton Food Cupboard! Hope to see you at the next one.

I went 5-2 at the @rochesterroyals.bsky.social Winter Ball ‘25 premodern charity event! I got 9th on breakers with “The Solution” but the vibes were immaculate. Almost 70 people showed up to a VFW in Rochester to raise money for a local food bank. I am so thankful to have the Royals events here.
