The Herdsmen Hearts are putting on a cross-dressing fashion show to raise money for Relay for Life. The event will take place on March 20 at 6 p.m. in the JBK commons.
There will be a maximum of 20 male contestants in the show, each required to pay a $10 entry fee to be donated to the cause. Each contestant is responsible for trying to get as many of his friends to support him by donating money for Relay for Life.
“[We] set it up in a way so you could eat your dinner while watching the fun,” Herdsman Hearts Public Relations Official Madelyn Melchoirs said. This is to be the Herdsmen Hearts’ spring philanthropy event.
“We’re hoping this is going to be a lot of fun for people to watch and want to participate in,” said Melchoirs.
There will be an evening dress, sports wear, and group dance round.
“It would be really fun to go to and watch. Plus who doesn’t like helping to find a cure for cancer?” Jo Ann Ross, EPML secretary, asked.
Not many students know the event will be going on, as there was a “mix up on the flyers” with the wrong date, Melchiors said.
One of these students is JBK staffer Rochelle Parchment.
“A drag show? No, never heard of it,” she said.
“We’re hoping that people will read the table tents when they get back from spring break,” said Melchoirs.
