BHA Summer Offerings
Annual Summer Party
While summer is sure to be heating up, stay cool at the Beaufort Historical
Associations Summer Party. Held on July 12 from 7-11 p.m. at the Beaufort Historic
Site, the BHA’s Summer Party was started as a celebration of Beaufort’s 300th
anniversary in 2009. It has quickly become a tradition, and the perfect occasion to
celebrate the fun and easy-going, season that so many families enjoy in Beaufort. This
year, the BHA invites you to a luau-themed party, featuring great music and food
with a Hawaiian and Polynesian flair.
Tickets for this premier summer event are $100 per person and will feature a luau-
inspired menu by local favorite, Beaufort Grocery Company. Their help as one of the
, lead sponsors makes this Summer Party possible.
The Summer Party will feature live music by The Boomers. A phenomenal band
with a cool vibe and crowd-pleasing favorites, the band has a longstanding tradition
of great performances and a loyal following. They have been providing high-energy
music for the past two decades, including a performance for the 1997 President
Clinton Inaugural Ball. They have produced Grammy-winning multi-platinum
artists’ tracks on many nationally released albums and have written over 100 songs
for popular television shows.
With the help of donations by local businesses, the BHA hopes to raise funds
through a live and silent auction to continue its mission of preserving the local
history as well as educating future generations on the rich heritage found in Beaufort.
Tickets may be purchased in advance or "the day of the event at the Beaufort
Historic Site Welcome Center at 130 Turner Street in Beaufort or online at www.
beauforthistoricsite.org. For more information on this and other Beaufort Historical
Association events, stop in the welcome center, call 728-5225 or visit the website.
