MARY SCROGGS GOES TO PROM PHOTOGRAPHY BY MARTHA HOELZER
This spring, Mary Scroggs Elementary School hosted an ’80s-themed prom to raise money for the school’s STEAM – science, technology, engineering, arts and mathematics – initiative. The back-in-time theme was realized in the event’s decorations, food and participants’ dress. The night was a success as close to 200 teachers, staff, local business sponsors and parents attended and the school raised over $17,000. CHM

FORE! THE KIDS PHOTOGRAPHY BY JESSICA STRINGER
Under a perfect Carolina blue sky, guests at the Larry Fedora Golf Tournament set off for a round of golf at the Chapel Hill Country Club. The event raised about $15,000 for Volunteers For Youth, a Carrboro-based organization focused on delinquency prevention through community service and teen court programs. Most of the funds will benefit the program that provides mentors for Orange County youth and activities such as trips to the zoo and pottery lessons. The winner of the tournament was the team from Coleman, Huntoon & Brown PLLC consisting of David Huntoon, Alan Campbell, Price French and Mark Brown, a past president of the Volunteers for Youth board.
