Folks have hardly had time to recover from last week’s nonprofit activities than they’re facing a tsunami of a week ahead. As if the 11th annual North Texas Giving Day on Thursday wasn’t enough, there are loads of invite-only events and the big-time fundraisers like Concert For A Cure at The Eye at The Joule, the Roberts S. Folsom Leadership Award Dinner honoring former Dallas Mayor Mike Rawlings at the Anatole, Harvest at the Arboretum’s A Tasteful Place, the SPCA’s Fur Ball at the Hyatt and CitySquare’s A Night To Remember with Steve Martin and Martin Short at the Winspear. Whew!
Now, despite all these get togethers taking place within three days, Saturday night’s Blue Jean Ball benefiting Luke’s FastBreaks at Eddie Deen’s has just posted the “Sold Out” sign.
But according to insiders, 2019 BJB Co-Chairs Gina Betts and Lisa Cooley will make room for a couple more tables if someone is hankering to party with Trace Adkins and to doff the ties, suits and stilettos for blue jeans, boots and leather vests.
If you’re one of those with a “hankering,” call 855.585.3732 ASAP. But don’t tell them where you heard that you have a chance to get in.
