LUMBERTON — The Southeastern NC Agricultural Center came alive on Nov. 14 as Boots & BBQ: Rodeo Royale, presented by Smith’s Refrigeration, brought our community together for an evening of fun and philanthropy.
The UNC Health Southeastern Foundation hosted its 13th Annual Boots & BBQ: Rodeo Royale, welcoming more than 400 guests for a memorable celebration of generosity, good food, great music and community spirit. This long-standing tradition continues to draw a true cross-section of our region, with multiple generations and communities coming together to enjoy a night that offered something for everyone. With the support of sponsors, vendors, volunteers and guests, the event raised approximately $85,000 to benefit UNC Health Southeastern’s Gibson Cancer Center.
