YouTubeA Date 2 Remember - a very high-energy charity auction and fashion show hosted by the Columbus Young Professionals CLUB for the past 5 years in downtown Columbus is set for Saturday, January 28th and will be hosted at the LC Pavilion. Members of the central Ohio community are invited to “make a date” for this unique charity event with all proceeds to benefit the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation and Flying Horse Farms. Last year, nearly 1,000 attendees experienced ‘A Date 2 Remember', which raised more than $40,000 for charity and was named “Best Charity Event in Central Ohio” by Columbus CEO Magazine (Nov. 2010).This year's event will run from 7-11 p.m. at the LC Pavilion (405 Neil Avenue) in downtown Columbus where attendees can mix and mingle for the cause. Doors will open at 6:30 p.m., followed by a cocktail hour featuring delicious sample appetizers and desserts donated by local restaurants (Due Amici, The Refectory, Mazah, Fado, Jeni’s Ice Cream, and more), a craft beer sampling booth, and other exciting surprises from 7-8 p.m. At 8:00 p.m., get ready for an evening full of entertainment and fun as the live date auction and fashion show begins.
Single and coupled (double date) participants will showcase some of the city's best fashions.We have a total of 10 bachelors, 10 bachelorettes, 3 couples and 2 celebrities! Our celebrity bachelor is William Holman. Originally from Galloway, OH, you may recognize him from The Bachelorette, Season 6, and Bachelor Pad 2. Our celebrity bachelorette is Alli Travis, an Apparel Merchant for Abercrombie & Fitch who appeared on The Bachelor, Season 15 and Bachelor Pad 2.
Additionally, for those looking to learn more about the event, purchase discounted tickets, talk with representatives from the CYP CLUB and from both charities, and meet the date participants, a special Preview Social for ‘A Date 2 Remember’ will be hosted on Wednesday, January 11th from 6:30-8:30 p.m. at Hubbard Grille (793 N.
