This is a fundraiser for the Newburg Children’s Museum of Natural History. NCM is asking local area youths to donate their time and talent for this worthy cause. All performers are asked to line out their donor-sponsors before the night of the performance. There will be blue ribbons for the winning acts in each category for each of the age groups based on their performance. There will be a “NCM Financial Champion 2010” trophy presented to the act that brings in the most money for the Museum. The museum is currently attempting to raise $15,000 for some necessary electrical work, a heating/cooling system for the museum and weatherizing of the hundred plus year old building that houses the museum.
