Have you ever wondered if there could be a diamond at the bottom of your champagne glass?
At 6 p.m. Monday, at the 23rd annual Steak ‘N’ Stake Charity Dinner at the Boys and Girls Club in Manassas, you just might find one.
Jewelry by Design along with Justice Title and Escrow will present a chance to win a $1,500 diamond during the charity event. Fifty glasses will be filled with non-alcoholic champagne, at $50 each, and one lucky sipper will find a diamond at the bottom of their glass. All of proceeds will benefit the Prince William / Manassas Boys and Girls Clubs “Send a Kid to Camp” program, said Regional Director Glenn Vickers.
In addition to this contest, the evening will feature a silent auction, and fine dining with area leaders and business owners. Live coverage and video of the event will be carried on PotomacLocal.com and U Stream.
Those who cannot attend the event are encouraged to visit Steak ‘N’ Stake’s webpage where charitable donations can be made online.
The Boys and Girls Club’s mission is “to help boys and girls of all backgrounds, especially those who need us most, build confidence, develop character and acquire the skills needed to become productive, civic-minded, responsible adults.”
Prince William County / Manassas Boys and Girls Clubs would like to recognize the following $1,000 event table sponsors:
