G Gathering Southern Garden Party Benefits Bra-ha-ha

Southern Garden Party Benefits Bra-ha-ha



A southern garden party was held at the home of Shirley and Randy Forbes to support Chesapeake Regional Health Foundations and the 2014 Bra-ha-ha. The highlight of the evening was the introduction of The Men in Pink. These men have come out in support of breast cancer research and are raising money and awareness for Bra-ha-ha. The 2014 Bra-ha-ha will be held on September 26th at 6:30 p.m. at the Chesapeake Conference Center and will feature beautifully decorated bras along with an auction and awards show. Tickets may be purchased at www.brahaha.org.
