So, Saturday night, Tuckaberry helped the Impact Theater host a fundraiser. The theme was 'Winter's Warmth.'
Hence the candles.
Aaron won the tournament.
Adam announced stuff
Rob sang.
And we all imbibed freely.
But more importantly, people showed up. A lot of people. People whose faces I didn't recognize, whose names I didn't know. They also imbibed freely, which meant that they enjoyed the entertainment, and I learned how to make a balloon 'sword.' And most importantly, we had so, so much fun. We managed to gussy up the theater basement enough so that in dim lighting, it looked almost ambient. Everyone gave splendid performances, and (though we still have yet to crunch the numbers) we definitely came out in the black, which is better than we can say for our last benefit event. I am actually excited about hosting more events like this in the Impact, and it's given me newfound motivation to resume cleansing/renovating the downstairs and backyard (once the weather warms.)
Serious props to all the Tuckaberries who helped out, to all the friends who came out, and to all the new friends we made this weekend. Thank you all. Thank you all. Thank you all.
I can't wait to do it again! How's September?
