Volume 84, Issue 27 Web Edition SERVING BREVARD COLLEGE SINCE 1935 2019 Grassical 2019 Llamas, live music and more By Chloe McGee Layout and Design On Thursday, April 11, BC students, faculty and members of the community gathered on the lawn in front of Myers for Grassical 2019. It was an evening of music, food, lots of fun and, of course, llamas. SGA planned and hosted the event, inviting people from all over to join in on the festivities. The event featured live music from local bands Pretty Little Goat, The Remarks, The Get Right Band, The Craig Vaughn Experience, as well as student-led Beet Juice with Dal Davis on vocals and keyboard, Jaylaan Prioleau on drums and Reed Windham on bass guitar. Alongside a tropical themed buffet complimentary of Brevard College’s cafeteria were two food trucks that lined the street between the cafeteria and the library. Catering the event was Appalachian Chic serving gourmet southern fusion cuisine, and Blue Smoke BBQ providing a delicious array of hickory smoked meats. Grilled corn, cotton candy, ice cream and bike-blended smoothies were among the many treats that Grassical had to offer. Slacklines were set up for the event. Many attendees of the festival participate—some more skilled than others. In collaboration, Brevard College Junior Audrey Cardwell and Sophomore Sallie Riggan ran a booth where they offered colorful hair wraps and sold handmade jewelry from Roostershack Scraps, a small business located in Wilmington, NC that is owned and operated by Riggan’s mother. “The atmosphere is great, and I’m really enjoying the event—the food, music and the people,’’ said Michaela Lemmon from Salisbury, NC, a first time BC visitor. Senior Malynne Petoia and Sophomore Ivy Blanton volunteered at the event to illustrate— literally—their artistic talent by managing the face-painting station courtesy of SGA. BC Paws for a Cause held a table where they invited people to come make dog toys using scraps of t-shirts that they had collected from donation bins around campus. The Agriculture Club ran a station that gave people the opportunity to plant seeds in containers that they could take home and use in their own yards. The Biology Club also ran an assembly line of sorts where attendees of the festival could make their own moss terrariums from mason jars, pebbles, soil and an assortment of moss. The llamas, as expected, made a cameo appearance, which seems to be a fan favorite amongst BC students. “I have good vibes from [the llamas]... These animals are one of a kind,” said Thibault Tranchant, a senior at BC. Sydney Shaw (left) and Callie Darress. Panoramic shot of Grassical featuring the llamas.
