Two engineers turned magicians from the state of Ohio in the USA are in Belize for a series of magic shows to be held over the weekend. William Alexander and Fred Junkala came in as part of the Rotaract's fund raising efforts.
Luanne Williams, Rotaract Club
"The magic show is a major fundraiser for this year so we decided to invite two magicians from Ohio, Fred and William, to come and perform for us so we could have the proceeds from the Magic Show. We want to donate part of the proceeds to CARE Belize, we want to help the handicap patients that they have and we also want to have another scholarship recipient so we have two students who get full high scholarship to whatever high school accepts them. It is a high school scholarship that includes tuition, books, uniforms, and whatever money we have left we use it for other Rotaract charities."
There will be three shows, one on Saturday and two on Sunday at the Biltmore Hotel. Tickets are for $10 for children and $15 for adults.
