Shamrock Shakedown will rock at Q on Bay You will not want to miss celebrating St. Patrick’s Day at Q on Bay on Saturday night, March 16 at Q on Bay! Beaufort Academy’s spring FUN-raising event began in 1987, when it was named the “Pig Out in Frogmore” and was held at Sanders Packing Shed. This event was organized in memory of Mr. Pat Calhoun, a beloved teacher at Beaufort Academy. The original Pig Out was a sold-out celebration that annually united a growing community for nearly 15 years. In 2005 “Pig Out ... The Revival!” re-created the atmosphere from its predecessor while also making a name for itself. As in past Pig Outs, there was plenty of barbecue, adult beverages

and dancing, all in a friendly, comfortable environment. The fundraising remained a big part of the event, and the net proceeds went to Beaufort Academy, the nonprofit independent PreK-12 school, to fill part of the void between tuition and the cost of running this college preparatory school. In 2010, BA mixed it up a bit, changing the event to the “Fish In”, which also featured a fishing tournament, and then in 2012 to the “Shamrock Shakedown”, Beaufort’s St. Patrick’s Day Celebration.
