Roaring 20's event to benefit cancer patients

A Roaring 20's theme is sure to make a memorable fundraising event to benefit patients at Josephine Ford Cancer Center.

 

The Jump, Jive and Wail Roaring 20's event, set for 6 p.m. Saturday, Feb. 7, at the historic and refurbished Westin Book Cadillac in Detroit, will benefit the Josephine Ford Cancer Center Catherine M. Price Cancer Relief Endowment. The fund assists cancer patients who lack the resources to cover their cancer treatment expenses.

 

The evening includes a cocktail reception and strolling dinner. Fox 2 news anchor Huel Perkins will serve as master of ceremonies.

 

Entertainment will be provided by The Rhythm Society Orchestra, a 15-piece orchestra specializing in true vintage swing music. The band was nominated for best Big Band/Swing artists at the Detroit Music Awards.

Roaring 20's festive attire is encouraged.
