September 17, 2006, The South's largest beach party was hosted at Pawleys Charcoal Steakhouse in Mauldin, SC., in support of the Upstate South Carolina Chapter of the American Red Cross.
"A Day at the Beach" lasted from 1 p.m.-9 p.m. with DJ Ben Phillips playing beach music which could be heard over the sounds of volleyballs at the six on six beach volleyball tournament while spectators enjoyed delicious food from the outdoor beach bar. Little ones who came were entertained in the Kids Zone with games, prizes and fun. In the early evening people were "Shaggin’ on the beach" to the hot tunes of the J Michael Band.
Inside Pawleys, at the VIP party, beach goers enjoyed delicious food and the cool sounds of beach music greats Bill Pinkney, the original voice of “The Drifters,” Billy Scott of “Billy Scott and the Georgia Prophets,” Hack Bartley and Brent Fortson of “The Original Swinging Medallions,” and Clifford Curry who had the hit songs, She Shot a Hole in My Soul and We’re Gonna Hate Ourselves in the Morning, and many other local artists.
Fun was had by everyone! The event brought in over $6,000 for the Chapter.
