We’re putting the “fun” back in fundraising! Saturday, April 29 at 7:30pm, local comedienne Chelsea Woodmansee hosts the Tower Theatre Foundation’s major fundraiser – the Bend Follies – reminding us that raising money doesn’t always have to be serious. Two-time winner of The Source Readers’ Choice Award for Best Fundraiser, it’s a night of comedy starring local civic, business, education and media personalities performing sketches and singing parodies; plus, live and silent auctions all benefitting the programs and mission of the nonprofit Tower Theatre Foundation. Attendees can bid on a number of items, including:
Golf Staycations at Brasada & Tetherow
Bike Ride with Chris Horner
Two-Night Vacation at Cannon Beach
Beer for a Year
Passes to Disneyland
Original 1940 Tower Balcony Seats
Local “celebrity” cast members are:
Scott Ramsay
Bob Shaw
Lee Anderson
Emily Kirk
Chuck Arnold
Peter Skrbek
Chris & Megan Horner
Sally Russell
Tammy Baney
