STAFF RECOMMENDATION
Recommendation
DISCUSSION ITEM ONLY AT THIS TIME
The County Administrator has received a request from Mr. Kenny Caperton from Hillsborough, North Carolina (see attached email request), for the following:
1) Utilize the County-owned Byrnes Lake Landing site for a movie screening event on November 13, 2021, for approximately 3 hours after sunset; and
2) The use of Bicentennial Park grounds for overnight camping and a movie viewing event November 13, 2021.
Mr. Caperton operates a project “On Set Cinema” where movies are shown all over the country at their actual filming locations. Byrnes Lake Landing was one of the sites for the movie Friday the 13th and Mr. Caperton is hoping to hold the event at Byrnes Lake Landing for that reason.
The event would be a for-profit event with maximum 50 people attending who would buy tickets from Mr. Caperton to participate.
