Dear Winedalians, This morning we are launching a* Camp Shakespeare HornRaiser! <https://hornraiser.utexas.edu/project/26117>* (think Kickstarter, but run by UT and 100% of the money raised goes to Camp Shakespeare).
We joyfully invite you to show Doc your love and your support for the program that is the culmination of his life’s work, Camp Shakespeare! Join us in raising money for this summer’s virtual 2021 Camp performances of *Much Ado About Nothing and Twelfth Night. *Please note that this undertaking will happen fast! We have until July 9 to meet (or surpass!) our goal of $15,000. You remember the thrill of being at Winedale, of being challenged to play out your ideas and discoveries on stage. You remember how being at Winedale provided lifelong friendships and a heartfelt relationship to the transcendent work of William Shakespeare. After thirty years giving that experience to classes of University students, Doc has devoted the past *twenty-one years* to providing it to young people, 11-16, inspiring them to reach inside themselves and outside to others in exploration and play, study and hard work. These are great gifts. You know this! Let's thank Doc. Let's acknowledge the role played by Robin Grace Soto as Camp Director. Let's show our appreciation to the kids who, in spite of the pandemic, have met weekly with Doc and Robin to read plays and memorize lines and who remained committed to Camp although attending in person was impossible this summer. *Let’s deluge Doc, Robin and the Campers with love and hard cash!!* *Thank you!* *Madge, Maggie and Mary*
