HGTV Star to Host Blondes Vs. Brunettes® Twin Cities’ Draft Party in Effort to Support Alzheimer’s Awareness
WHAT: Haus Salon (4240 Nicollet Ave.,
Minneapolis, MN 55409) will sponsor the first-ever Blondes Vs. Brunettes®
Draft Party. Drew Levin, co-host of HGTV’s new show “Renovate to Rent”, will
host the event.
Blondes vs. Brunettes® is a volunteer-driven active event for
women that that brings the passion and spirit of young community leaders
together to support the Alzheimer’s Association. The event concept
is organized around a flag football game in which the two participating teams
are divided based on the age-old rivalry between blondes and brunettes. In the
Twin Cities, the game will take place on Oct. 12, 2013, at Hamline University,
St. Paul, Klas Field.
An
event committee leads the organization of the BvB game and all associated
events. This committee has the support of the local Alzheimer’s Association
chapter in coordination and organization.

WHY: All the official players and coaches will be announced for
each team (Blonde and Brunette). The co-chairs will have a first, second and
third round draft pick for each team, which will be determined by fundraising
totals as of Thursday. To date, the local non-profit organization has raised
more than $31,000 for the Alzheimer’s Association. This is the first time that
Blondes Vs. Brunettes® will take place in the Twin Cities (see
attached press release for full details). To donate to the cause, people are
encouraged to visit: http://act.alz.org/site/TR?pg=pfind&fr_id=4240
In addition,
guests attending the party will have the opportunity to win a gift basket
valued at $100 from Haus Salon.
