Swing with JARM
Jasper Animal Rescue Mission
August 12th
The Jasper Animal Rescue Mission (JARM) will host a special showing of the May River Theater production of the musical "Swing" at 8:00 p.m. Thursday, August 12, 2010 at the Ulmer Auditorium in Bluffton. All proceeds from the sale of tickets go to help JARM in its mission to provide humane care and to try and find homes for as many stray, abandoned, or neglected dogs and cats from Jasper County as possible. Many of these animals find loving homes in Beaufort County and elsewhere in the US due to the many adoption events held throughout the lowcountry.
The show will be preceded by a wine reception at Myrtles in Bluffton at 6:15 p.m. Wine is being provided through the generosity of September Oaks Vineyard in Ridgeland. A silent auction will be held at the May River Theater prior to the show and at intermission.
