Holiday Hoopla for a Special Cause!!
2014
Saturday night was an annual event that we look forward to every year. It is the MJG Santa Pub Crawl to raise money for brain cancer research. Back in July, I posted about the MJG Brain Cancer Research Fund and why it is a cause that I believe in. This annual event is one of the big fund raisers of the year…plus it is a blast!
We had some friends over to our house for food and drink before we headed to downtown Raleigh for the festivities. We got in some great photo opportunities as well!
Tony and I were ready for our 7th year at the MJG Santa Pub Crawl!
Kelly & Sean as Santa’s Elf and Ralphie from A Christmas Story!
Donna and David as the snow globe and snowman!
A little kiss for my polar bear!
A couple of elves ready to hit the town!
The night consisted of visiting three different bars and hanging out with lots of great people!
Tony with our friends Amanda as Ms. Reindeer and Rusty as Santa Burt
Santa Eric (the organizer of all the craziness) with Bert and Andrea, Ms. Reindeer
My Tony with Tony G., as Scrooge
Kelly and I with Jiri Tlusty, a Carolina Hurricanes player, who just happened to be at the second bar that the crawl visited.
Polar Bear and Bert with Elias Lindholm, another Carolina Hurricanes player, that agreed to have a photo to support the cause!
The Polar Bear and Santa Bert receive so many requests for photos from people that are at the various bars (not there for the event per se) that they also ask for a small donation when they agree to the picture. All those donations added up to over $100 that will go to the cause!
The evening was another night of great fun and I am certain it raised a lot more money for brain cancer research!
