Bra-Vada!

Bra-Vada!

October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month, and everywhere there are benefits and fundraisers.  Here in the FM all month long, teams and individuals can be found raising money and awareness by collecting old BRAs and of course money for our local FUNdraiser

BRAs of every size shape and color are strung together to create a BRA Garland that is draped across the front and sides of the Hotel Donaldson during the week of October 23rd in support of breast cancer 
awareness month.

Last night, a group of BRAve and BRAssy broads gathered for a BRAnd new kind of party we called BRA-VADA.


Our BRAinchild was to use all of the spare b
eads, BRAcelets and BRAid we had lying around to make sure the BRAs we donated could be seen among the thousands in the BRA garland.
There was a lot of BRAgging, some BRAndishing of hot glue guns, but luckily no BRAwls broke out.

The end result was amazing! 

Some were demure and almost wearable.

Some were fabulous.

Some BRAzen,  

We weren’t afraid to BRAnch out, and try new things. 

In fact we had so much fun we’re going to make this an annual event!
BRAce yourself!

 BRAvo!

    What happens to the bras afterwards? Those are just too cool to toss out!

    Mrs. G, I will invite you! My BFF from high school lives in your neck of the woods, so perhaps you two could carpool?

    Heidi, we string 'em up along with 3,000 others then drape them across the front of a building downtown!
