Calling all singers, dancers, musicians and performers of all kind. It’s time to get your act together for “Orcas Has Talent” – 2014.

Organizers for “Orcas Has Talent” have just released the dates for the upcoming shows for 2014. “Orcas has Talent,” a feel good version of the popular TV show “America’s Got Talent,” is a competition that showcases local singers, dancers, musicians, comedians, and performers of all kinds. There is a panel of entertaining mentors but the winner will be chosen by audience vote and will take home a $500 cash prize ! Junior winner takes home $50 and the chance to compete with the adults.

It all starts at the Grange on Jan. 18, 2014 at 2 p.m. for the “Orcas Has Talent Jr.” competition for kids grades 5th-8th and 10-14yrs. of age. Everyone will get a prize but the winner will take home $50 and the chance to compete with the adults in the “Finale Show.” That night, the adults will light up the stage for the Audition Show at 7:30 p.m. where eight finalist will be chosen to go on to compete for the $500 prize in the “Finale Show” at the Orcas Center on February 8 at 6:30pm.

Great fun for a great cause! All net proceeds from the OHT shows will benefit the valuable high school leadership program Point Blank lead by Julie Pinardi. Point Blank is a chapter of the national organization called SADD; Students Against Destructive Decisions who’s mission is to provide students with the best prevention tools possible to deal with the issues of underage drinking, other drug use, risky and impaired driving, and other destructive decisions.
