Bring on the music!
Wow. I don't recall a more jam-packed magazine issue than this one. In fact, there are so many walks, runs, fund-raisers, and upcoming events, that I am not quite sure where to begin.
So, I'll start with my favorite: music. Innsbrook After Hours. If you've gotten this far, you've seen the line-up as of press time, and it's pretty impressive. Sheryl Crow, BB King, The Pat McGee Band (reuniting for play in Innsbrook!), Daughtry, The Marshall Tucker Band (iconic), Pet Benatar & Neil Giraldo, Darius Rucker, The Beach Boys? Click here for What's New At The Venue.
OK, now for the walks and runs and benefits. Color Me Rad raised $31K for Special Olympics Virginia -- enough money to pay for 200 individuals to participate in the Summer Games this year. Plus, after checking out these photos, it's clear this was as much a fun-raiser as a fund-raiser. Unbelievable! Whoever thought of spraying paint at 10,000 runners through Innsbrook is pure genius.
Huge news: Innsbrook's first ever triathlon is coming to Innsbrook Saturday and Sunday, May 4 - 5 and it is also one of the largest; it's the National East Coast Triathlon Festival. Real all about it in INNSIDE INNSBROOK. Come out and help us raise money for St. Joseph's Villa and play in our Innsbrook Classic June 3 at CCV's Tuckahoe Course. March of Dimes' "March for Babies" is Sunday, May 5. Come out and support our efforts to raise money for March of Dimes. For details, turn to our center spread.
