FABULOUS FOLLIES
The
1st annual CAMP Rehoboth Follies on July 27th raised more than $35,000
for CAMP Rehoboth. The 3-hour stage show, which sold out two days in
advance, was composed of nine amateur musical skits and various auction
items. A panel of five judged the skits. Each troupe was awarded points
in various categories including originality, execution, and overall
entertainment value. Gold, silver, and bronze Barbie dolls were
presented to the top three. Third place went to the all-gal “Power
Surges of Scarborough Flair” (the troupe that also received the
grandest of standing ovations). Second place was awarded to the Drag
Volleyball posse for their amazing “America the Fabulous” number.
And nabbing first place—who else—that tireless troupe from 88
Sussex, the Sexy Sussex Swingers, led by clever Cliff Lassahn. Thanks to
the success of this year’s event, CAMP Rehoboth has confirmed that the
Follies will return in 2003.
