Thursday, January 26, 2012 at 9:37AM (WHITAKER BANK BALLPARK, Lexington, Ky.) The Lexington Legends and Window World of Lexington are teaming up for a night of fun - including University of Kentucky basketball - that will benefit St. Jude Children's Research Hospital.
The Legends' second annual Winter Bash is set for Saturday, February 11 from 7:30 p.m. to midnight in the Kentucky Ale Taproom at Whitaker Bank Ballpark. The menu will include heavy hors d'oeuvres and an open bar, sponsored by Kentucky Ale, which will offer beer and wine. No outside food or beverages will be permitted.
A silent auction will be held for a variety of items donated by the Legends and their corporate partners. All proceeds from ticket sales and the auction will go to St. Jude, the famed Memphis facility whose mission is to advance cures, and means of prevention, for pediatric catastrophic diseases through research and treatment.
Television screens throughout the Kentucky Ale Taproom will allow attendees to follow the UK men's basketball team as the Wildcats take on Vanderbilt in Nashville beginning at 9 p.m.
"This will be a fun evening for a great cause," said Legends Corporate Sales Manager Jake Thayer, who is organizing the event. "We appreciate the partnership of Window World, and we're very pleased to support St. Jude Children's Research Hospital."
Tickets to Winter Bash are available at a special discount rate of $40 per person, but only until February 1 when they will go up to the regular price of $80 per person. Tickets may be obtained by calling the Legends' box office at (859) 422-7867 or by going online to www.lexingtonlegends.com. For more information, contact Jake Thayer at (859) 422-7889.
