One of the largest events held at the Lucks Cannery thus far raised well over $45,000 for the Partnership for Children in Randolph County. The theme was based on Pete the Cat children's books. The event included a photo booth, silent auction, live auction, food from Black Powder Smokehouse, drinks, dessert cakes/pies and live music by Tyler Millard Band. Attendance was around 250, including dignitaries such as Neal Jackson, Hope Haywood, David Allen and others. Dr. Jonathan Thill with Venture Asheboro was the emcee and auctioneer. Art by children lined the walls throughout Thompson Arts and Event Hall. Pottery items by Ben Owen, Phil Morgan and Joseph Sand were just some of the items on the auction. It was an outstanding event that ended with the band continuing the party on the patio. The primary sponsor was Acme-McCrary Sapona Foundation.
