Greetings to All,
Welcome to Alamance County’s newest and hottest event! As a non-profit
organization, it is always frightening to leave one successful event behind in
order to embark on a journey less known. We wish to gratefully
acknowledge last year’s encouraging level of support that ushered Captain
White’s Lowcountry BASH onto the Alamance County scene. Many thanks
to E.W. Fulcher and Catering Works of Raleigh for bringing the taste and the
spirit of the Lowcountry to Captain White’s BASH.
This annual fall event is the major fundraising occasion for the Alamance
County Arts Council and your support is invaluable for the continuation of
its programming. Your presence tonight reconfirms your commitment to the
arts and we thank you so very much for being here.
The 2013 Lowcountry Bash Committee extends special appreciation to all
the volunteers, art patrons, artists and area businesses for joining us in
making tonight’s event a success. We could not present this remarkable
evening without you.
Please do have a wonderful time. Bid, sip, shuck and shag for the Arts.
Best wishes,

Fund A Need!
We need your help to enhance the lives of local school children and young
adults through three vital arts education programs. The 2013 Captain
White’s Lowcountry Bash Committee selected this cause as our Fund a
Need this evening. This year, we received a $2,000 grant from Target to
assist our theater education program, Go Live, but that is only a small part
of the puzzle we are yet to complete. We need an additional $10,000 to
successfully carry out the rest of our educational programs. Our auctioneer
will request financial support from everyone here tonight for this very
worthwhile endeavor.
Ramp It Up is a successful program which pairs local artists with after
school children to provide enrichment activities once a month, such as
shaping clay into bowls or weaving textiles. The program benefits the
students by nurturing innate creativity, building skills in communications,
problem-solving and group dynamics and instilling in them a new
enthusiasm for school.
Go Live brings a live performance experience to every second grader in
Alamance County. An acting troupe performs a well-known story such as
The True Story of the 3 Little Pigs. Then the students receive curriculum
connections in their classroom by local theater professionals. This year, the
Children’s Theater of Charlotte performed Hansel and Gretel and Jeff Aguiar
of Burning Coal Theatre Co. (Raleigh, NC) carried out student and teacher
workshops.
High School Scholarships are offered each year to students planning to
further their education in one of the arts disciplines. Our newest scholarship
honors the recently passed James Wilson, who was the founder and driving
force behind Snow Camp Outdoor Theatre. The scholarships are awarded
to four seniors in the amount of $500 each.
Your financial contributions toward Fund A Need help to ensure that these
arts education programs reach these children and young adults who might
not have had the opportunity otherwise.
Raise your bid boards and support the arts!
