Dave Hall, Rachel and Steph
Adam & Eve’s Charity Love
Fling took place on Friday July 8th at local hotspot LAVO. Every
year the community comes together to support and raise funds for New Vista
Community - “From an innovative and visionary concept to a fully realized dream
- New Vista Ranch is the premier facility for housing and empowering adults
with disabilities in Nevada. Founded in 1984 by parents of disabled individuals,
New Vista Ranch is a non-profit organization dedicated to providing quality
housing and support services to developmentally disabled adults.”
Director Michelle Jackson
started off the event with thanking the sponsors. Hosting the event were charming and wonderful
local media stars, Steph MacKenzie from 97.1 The Point and Rachel Smith from FOX 5, and morning anchor Dave Hall who just celebrated 10 years with FOX 5.
From the moment you walked in and were
offered refreshing Fortaleza Tequila cocktail (supplied by Lee’s Liquors) and scrumptious
passed appetizers by LAVO’s famed kitchen a fabulous time was had by all.
Two ways that money was
raised, bidding on celebrity singles and eligible singles from the Las Vegas community and a silent auction table. After a few
cocktails the crowd loosened up and wallets were opened! The beautiful
showgirls of Fantasy were a double dip of sexiness! Tracey and Soolin were at
the beginning and the bidding was fast and furious with these lovely ladies. Tracey
who is English purred to the crowd “who wants to be my Daddy?” Bidding paddles went up and over $1500 was
raised!
Before the bidding I had a
chance to talk with several of the eligible singles and one in particular had a
wonderful story. “King of Hearts” Mark has an autistic daughter and mentioned
that it was with the help of New Vista that she has a better quality of life
and it galvanized him to start his own organization which also helps those affected
by autism. His bidding experience was wildly fun! He said that the bidding
should start at $1000 and a sultry blonde sauntered up to him and started throwing
hundred dollar bills! Steph was in charge of keeping the money safe, which she
did, in her top! Alas the blonde did not win “The King of Hearts” and the winning
bid was for $1900.
It is always the quiet guys
that you need to look out for and after another fun experience with “Rev Your
Engine Ladies” Taylor, who stripped down to his underwear which was stuffed
with money, well then came “Mr. Vegas” James. Shy and quiet he was the top earner, with his
winning bid of $6000! Of course that fact that he shook his “money maker” had
the crowd cheering and helped the bidding escalate. This entire event raised approximately $34,000.
All of the packages came with
show tickets, dinners, zip line adventures, golf rounds and much more! For more
