Royal Players returns for first reading seeking a small additional grant for fall shows
Summary
At first reading the Royal Players asked the commission for $65.12 in additional funds to help advertise and support September–December shows, citing a strong draw for their haunted-house event; the item will return for further consideration.
The Royal Players presented a first reading to the A and P Commission requesting additional funding to support upcoming performances and advertising.
A representative for the Royal Players told commissioners the group had previously received a $10,000 award earlier this year and was seeking an additional $65.12. "What we currently have will be completed in August," the presenter said, "so we're hoping that this will fund September, October, November, and December shows." The representative emphasized the group's haunted-house event draws out-of-region visitors and helps bring people to Benton.
The request was taken as a first reading; commissioners asked no substantive follow-up questions at the meeting and did not vote on the request during the session. The item will return on a future agenda for further consideration.
