"It is a fair, even-handed, noble adjustment of things," wrote Charles Dickens in A Christmas Carol​, "that while there is infection in disease and sorrow, there is nothing in the world so irresistibly contagious as laughter and good-humour." This is the basic glass-half-full philosophy that powers the Festival of Trees and Lights every pre-Christmas season, which benefits the Kosair Children's Hospital and is being held this year from November 11 to 13 at Louisville Slugger Field.

This September's Pink Tie Ball is a fabulous event that benefits Susan G. Komen For The Cure, and BW3's on Taylorsville Road has generously volunteered to donate 15% (pretax) of all food purchased tomorrow to the fundraiser.

Simply show up and get your ticket on site. Remember to bring as many of your friends, family, and co-workers as you can to benefit the cause. There's no better Friday combination than Fashion, Food, and Fundraising!
