For the 2026-2027 school year, Capt’n Bill’s — the premier sand volleyball facility with 12 courts, three bars, a brewery and full restaurant —has donated upward of $10,000 to local schools’ youth volleyball programs. Owner Brookes Musser announced all four New Hanover County high school volleyball programs would receive $1,500 and eight local middle school volleyball programs would receive $500. Last year Musser had donated $1,000 to high school volleyball programs, adding an additional $500 per school this year. This was also the first year she gave funds to middle school volleyball programs. Capt’n Bill’s has a unique take on dining, combining restaurant and bar service with sand volleyball courts.
