Both the Urbanathlon and our Fall Event at Harry Caray's are little more than a month away.
And Marla and Allen are getting married the weekend after that!
But I digress.
If anyone is wondering what the night is like, it's tons of fun. It's all you can drink, and it's GOOD alcohol, not swill like at a college kegger, in case someone out there has reservations. The food is also a selling point (for me, anyway): tons of fried goodness, but also healthier options (broiled chicken and lean steak skewers, veggie platters with hummus, fruit salad, etc.) for more health-minded individuals. Since I will have run a half marathon and done some ridiculous obstacle course stuff that morning, you can direct me straight to the chicken wings and Carol's cookies.
Mmmmmm...Carol's cookies.
The silent auction always has good stuff too: restaurant gift certificates, trips to exotic locations, tickets to Chicago places (Sox games, Shedd Aquarium, etc.), spa treatment kinda stuff, and then many one-of-a-kind items (hockey sticks autographed by Blackhawks players, framed photographs or works of art, etc.).
So if any of this sounds good to you, come out and support us!
Or even better, if you want to help us get stuff for the auction, ask your favorite establishment/well-connected friends to lend a hand.
Email girf@earthlink.net and they can tell you how to help out the Associate's Board.
