Beyond Pink, a local non-profit and 501(c)3, is hosting their 9th annual designer Bra Fashion Show next Saturday, October 6, at The Davenport Grand Hotel from 5:30-10pm. At 5pm, the doors will open to a fabulous silent auction with hundreds of items, no host bar and plentiful hors d'oeuvres. At 7pm the live show and auction will begin.

Talented local artists and designers will once again show off their best. Their themed packages will be auctioned off one by one as the fun evening continues. The event will wrap up with a very fun after party where all are invited. Hundreds will turn out to support Beyond Pink - and 100% of the net proceeds will go towards funding for women who cannot afford thermography. To date, the charity has helped over 1,250 local women in the battle against breast disease, a number not lost on those behind this event's success. The last event raised over $188,000, which will now go directly to help women in our community.
