Back and bigger than ever, Renaissance the Runway hit the stage of IP Casino Resort & Spa’s Studio B
on January 30. The annual fashion show fundraiser bene ts the Bacot McCarty foundation, a community outreach organization that serves underprivileged youth through education and the arts.
This year’s event was coordinated by Andi Oustalet and Summer Davis Shelby. Fifty- ve models walked the runway, decked out by 15 local retailers. In total, more than $30,000 was raised for this great cause.
“This fashion extravaganza has allowed the foundation to bring together even more supporters
the Runway
and volunteers, and allowed us to showcase the good works that we do,” said Bacot McCarty Foundation Executive Director Todd Trenchard. “We cannot thank the IP Casino, our wonderful event coordinators, our models, and sponsors enough for helping us surpass our dreams and goals.”
