On Tuesday, August 19, 2014, the Second Semi Annual Red Petticoats held their “Hats & Handbags for Heroes” Bunco Tournament Fundraiser benefiting the Lone Survivor Foundation Crystal Beach Retreat, at Tiki Beach Bar & Grill. The group gathered and the excitement could be heard near and far as the participants drew their table assignments and the dice started to roll.

A big THANK YOU to Anne Willis for donating the winner purses by Dooney & Burke and Kate Spade, AND our wine that kept the evening lively. Huge thanks also to Karen & Chris, owners of Tiki Beach Bar & Grill for providing the venue and donating our tasty buffet for the evening. With 48 ladies participating and other generous donations the Red Petticoat Team donation from the tournament totaled $1,284.25. This is the second tournament the team has held with the first Bunco tournament in March making a donation of $1,000.00. The Bolivar Peninsula Cultural Foundation’s board & officers wanted to contribute to the Crystal Beach Retreat of The Lone Survivor Foundation and formed the “Red Petticoat Team” honoring Jane Long’s strength and spirit of survival. A Team fundraising goal of $10,000.00 was set at the beginning of this year. The Team has surpassed their goal with $11,866.25 in donations thus far. Watch for future events to benefit our growing donation. If you would like to contribute or join the Red Petticoats, please contact Glenda Mastin at
