Cruise for the Calverts Raises $17,000!
Fundraising efforts by friends and family of Elizabeth and John Calvert have pushed the Calvert Reward Fund to over $65,000. Between ticket sales (84) and the silent auction, the Cruise for the Calverts raised $17,000 for the reward fund. The event was certainly a wonderful tribute to Liz and John as many of their family, friends, and business associates attended. And their generosity was amazing. On behalf of Liz and John, thank you all for your generous donations of time, talent, energy, organization, and resources to make this event such a success on so many levels. Special thanks go to Vagabond Cruise, Sea Pines Resort, and Harbour Town Yacht Basin. This event would not have happened without your donations of vessel, crews working the event, and donations of fuel, food and beverage, music and more. I am honored by what you have done. Now please, please somebody come forward and make us give you this money.
