The levoy goes 'green' and 'purple'
May 15, 2009

Levoy reusable shopping bags are now available! Save our plastic trees and don't use the plastic bags when you go shopping. Use one of our stylish Levoy bags instead. They wear like iron and can be used thousands of times. You can even wash them if they ever get, you know, "not so fresh."

Did you know most supermarkets give you a nickel for every bag you don't use? If you're a shopaholic, you'll be saving the planet while you shop yourself rich! W00t!

They're royal purple with custom spiffy Levoy art on the side reminding the world of what we're all about. Best of all they're only $2.50 each, so buy a bunch and remember to put them in your car so they'll be ready for eco-friendly action the next time you shop.

Buy 'em on Third Fridays, at Levoy Events and everywhere else that supports the Levoy. Or you can call Amanda at 856-825-4516 ext. 102 and she'll hook you up.

Bags provided through a grant from the Cumberland County Improvement Authority.

See, you don't have to hug a tree, recycle toilet paper and drive a Prius to help save the world.

Off Broad Street Players
Join The LTPS Team!

March 20, 2008

We are happy to announce that Bridgeton-based Off Broad Street Players (OBSP) have joined forces with the Levoy Theatre Preservation Society to restore and reopen Millville's 100-year-old historic landmark theatre.

This partnership designates the OBSP as the home theatre company of the Levoy and allows both organizations to share resources and personnel. Together, our organizations expect our restoration efforts to kick into high-gear with reopening within the next 12 months. Beginning immediately, we are starting the Levoy Renaissance Campaign to raise the necessary capital to get the job done. Donate through our link here.

But there's something else we hope you'll do right now that won't cost much at all.

Presently, we are collecting signatures of support for The Renissance Campaign to show our potential funders the overwhelming support that exists for our project. Please, we urge you to download, sign and return our downloadable support PDF form from our website or the OBSP website. This PDF is a special form that will allow you to fill it out on your computer and print it out for your signature. Just mail, fax or eMail it back to the address on the form.

You don't have to make a donation. All we want from you right now is your signature as a show of support and solidarity for our project. Tell your friends, family, co-workers and neighbors to do the same. Print out copies to give to those who are less tech-savvy. You don't even need to live in Cumberland County! But you do need to be at least 18 years of age (sorry kids).

Our goal is at least 3000 signatures. C'mon, everybody! We can do this! Thanks for your continued support!
