Win tickets to A Night on the Red Carpet

The third annual “A Night on the Red Carpet” party is scheduled for Feb. 26 at Abode Venue, 1330 E. Douglas, and the Eagle has two pair of tickets to give away.

It’s a fun, black-tie optional party that this year will feature food from Carrabba’s, Larkspur and Luca Italian Kitchen plus drinks, a showing of the 84th Annual Academy awards, local celebrities on the “red carpet,” live music and a live and silent auction. Today, I was promoted to emcee of the party (eeeeep!!!!!) after Sierra Scott declared herself indisposed.

If you want to enter to win a set of tickets, visit the Kansas.com Facebook page and scroll down till you find the giveaway. All you have to do is hit “like” on the post. We’ll randomly choose winners at noon on Feb. 20.

The party doubles as a fundraiser for Episcopal Social Services. Tickets are $75 a person or $850 for a table of 10. More information about the party can be found at http://www.esswichita.org

The picture with this post, taken at last year’s party of me and my friend, Kim, is featured on the website about the event, I discovered today. The odd thing about this party: Although I always have fun, I leave having no idea who won the Oscars. Oh well. That’s why DVRs were invented.
