CREW Concert 2012 – A Look Back

On Saturday, March 24th, 2012 about 400 people gathered on the lawn of Riverside Park in Olde Bonita Springs to support the CREW Land & Water Trust at our 5th annual benefit concert. The music line-up “was the best one yet” – with Wendy Webb‘s smooth vocals, The Wholetones funky upbeat folkcore fusion, and the grand finale with Kat Epple and the Katalyst Project. A classy touch was the dancing of Christar Damiano.

Between sets CREW Chairman of the Board, Bill Hammond, and CREW Executive Director, Brenda Brooks, shared a few stories about CREW and thanked all the concert sponsors, Trustees, volunteers, and those who attended. We also shared three short videos about CREW that were produced as part of our documentary package by WGCU-Public Media last year.

The silent auction was fabulous and Rotary of Bonita Springs provided drinks while CREW Trustes provided food for concert-goers. The people who attended were generous bidders at our silent auction as well as generous donors to our food/drink donation jug. Thank you to all who made this night so special.

Come Bid on These Cool Silent Auction Items!

This coming Saturday, March 24, 2012, the CREW Trust will hold its annual benefit concert – A Musical Night with Nature at the beautiful Riverside Park in Olde Bonita Springs. As part of our concert festivities we also hold a silent auction.

We’ve got great experiences as well as some pretty cool items up for auction this year. From canopy tree climbs to fossil expeditions, airplane rides over CREW to swamp buggy tours at Corkscrew Sanctuary – there’s something for every adventurer.

Plus, you can bid on original art, music, and crafts – a family portrait sitting with world-renown portraitist Bradford, photographs, art prints, walking sticks, scarves, and music -including a 3-hour personal Classic Rock concert by the band, The Mighty Quint.

We thank all our silent auction donors for their generous donations to help raise money for our environmental education programs at CREW. Educating kids and adults about the wonders of the watershed and the importance f protecting places like CREW is a critical component of our work.

So, come on out to the concert (tickets are available at the event!) and stroll through our auction to bid on these great items and fantastic experiences!

See you there!

Thank our Concert Sponsors

The annual CREW benefit concert – A Musical Night with Nature – is our biggest fundraiser of the year. We wouldn’t be nearly as successful with this fundraising effort without the support of our sponsors. These people and businesses support our environmental education programs and our mission to protect the watershed by providing much-needed financial donations.

Please take a moment to look at our 2012 Concert Sponsor page and patronize these businesses if/when you can. Even if you don’t use their services or products, let them know how much you appreciate them because they support the CREW Land & Water Trust! 

We hope to see all of you (and all your friends!) out at the concert next Saturday, March 24th at 6:30 PM for a wonderful evening of music, fire dancing, and our cut-throat silent auction under the stars at the beautiful Bonita Springs Riverside Park.

Thank you to our 2012 sponsors! We appreciate your support!
