'RCC Presents' Hosts Ragsdale Cabaret June 11, Children's Play June 16
Randolph Community College will host two cultural arts events in June
in a new series called "RCC Presents." Both will be held in the R.
Alton Cox Learning Resources Center auditorium on the Asheboro Campus.
In the first RCC Presents, Asheboro's Lane Ragsdale has joined with some of his dearest "pageant friends" to bring a brand new cabaret to life. "Lane Ragsdale and Friends: A Season of Spotlights" will be held Thursday, June 11 at 7:30 p.m.
This is an abridged version of the bigger show to be held on June 19 at the Marriott in downtown Raleigh. Join Lane and an amazing guest cast as they take a walk down "memory Lane" through his lifelong love/hate relationship with pageantry with stories and songs from a variety of genres. Tickets are $10 and will be available at the door on a first-come, first served basis.
Tom Casey, Ragsdale's musical arranger, will accompany the show that will include a montage of Miss North Carolina's talent selections through the years as well as a variety of selections from musical theater and film. "I have so much to say," Ragsdale said. "This show represents a lifetime of memories made between June and September related to the local, state and national Miss America Pageant throughout my entire life. It isn't all pretty, but it sure is interesting."
On Tuesday, June 16, at 1 p.m., RCC Presents will host "The Boy Who Would Be Captain Hook." Geared for children ages 5-10, "The Boy Who Would Be Captain Hook" is a moving and humorous look at growing up without a right hand. Actor David Harrell, who most recently performed "A Little Potato and Hard to Peel" at RCC, relates how he wanted to be a part of the normal playground games but was only included as the other kids recognized his prosthetic hook as being perfect for portraying Captain Hook in "Peter Pan." Always wanting more, David clearly demonstrates that, by not judging a book by its cover, everybody grows. To reserve your free tickets for this 45-minute program, go to https://www.eventbrite.com/e/the-boy-who-would-be-captain-hook-tickets-16884417748. Seating is limited.
RCC's Asheboro Campus is located at 629 Industrial Park Avenue. Take the McDowell Road exit off of U.S. 220 Bypass/I73-I74 and follow the signs.

RCC's 2015 Graduates to Wear "Green" Gowns at May 13 Ceremony at Providence Grove
Dr. Donny Hunter, president and CEO of the North Carolina Association
of Community College Trustees, will be the guest speaker at Randolph
Community College's Curriculum Graduation ceremony scheduled for 7 p.m.,
Wednesday, May 13, in the Providence Grove High School gymnasium.
Dr. Hunter's public career includes service as a teacher, principal, assistant superintendent, superintendent, consultant with the North Carolina Public Schools, assistant to the North Carolina Community College System president and executive director of the North Carolina State Board of Community Colleges. In his private business he conducts searches for college presidents and provides leadership training for administrators and governing boards. He is a sought-after speaker, teacher, and facilitator.
Over 450 students have applied to graduate with their associate degrees, diplomas, and certificates this spring. Over 230 graduates are expected to participate in the ceremony on May 13, and they will be wearing Herff Jones' Renew gowns, certified as being made from 100% recycled materials.
According to the company, every Renew gown saves 29 plastic bottles from the landfill, saves the energy equivalent of 1/2 gallon of gas; and decreases the effects of global warming through 1.5 lbs. fewer CO2 emissions or greenhouse gas. The gowns' color and feel are similar to previous years, according to Rose Chilson, co-chair of RCC's graduation committee, so graduates can also wear gowns that have been donated by previous classes.
Because of the limited space in the gymnasium, RCC has issued four guest tickets for each graduate who is participating in the ceremony. Only ticketed guests will be allowed in the gymnasium. Overflow seating will be available in the PGHS auditorium with a live video feed for additional guests to watch the ceremony. Providence Grove is located at 5555 Mack Lineberry Road, Climax.
