Old Town Cape held its first-ever Revivify fundraiser on Thursday, Oct. 22, 2020, at Century Casino in Cape Girardeau. The Revivify fundraiser was an open house-style event held from 4 p.m. to 9 p.m. and attendees were able to support and learn more about the mission of Old Town Cape while partaking in: the Charles L. Hutson Virtual Auction, raffles and a wine pull featuring wines from restaurants in downtown Cape Girardeau, a radiothon featuring conversations with local leaders and community members about their experience with Old Town Cape — which also aired on 93.9 The River, a live broadcast with MediaLeaf LLC featuring live performances and demonstrations by local business owners, artists and more, and a cash bar and live music. Proceeds from the fundraiser benefit Old Town Cape’s revitalization efforts in downtown Cape Girardeau, and the Revivify fundraiser was presented by The Bank of Missouri and United Express by Skywest Airlines.
