A ‘knock out’ auction
With five playfully modest male models, the second annual Bras for
Cause event in Terry helped raise over $4,500 for the American Cancer
Society during Saturday evening’s benefit auction. Minor expenses will
be taken from that total, explained organizer Toni Kalfell, who was one of
about five ladies spearheading this year’s event. Calling it a very successful
evening, Kalfell praised those who helped organize the dinner and auction in
a 3-week time span and gave rave reviews for the male models who volunteered
their time and talent.
