Drag Brunch Benefit for Christopher's Challenge

Drag Brunch Fundraiser to Benefit Christopher's Challenge

Join us on Saturday, September 14 at The Spotted Octopus for a fabulous Drag Brunch Fundraiser benefiting Christopher's Challenge! Hosted by Ambrosia Salad, Honey Chew Chew, and Kyla Minx, this event promises a fun-filled day of delicious food, dazzling performances, and the chance to support a life-saving cause!

The brunch kicks off at 11:00 AM with a spectacular drag performance lineup. Tickets include the entertainment only – food and drinks are available a la carte at the restaurant.

We’re thrilled to announce that local celebrity Tommy Bechtold will be joining us for this special event, making his Drag Debut! Tommy is a well-known actor and comedian with an impressive resume in TV, film, and digital media. You may recognize him from his roles in popular shows like "The Jim Gaffigan Show", "The Good Fight", and "The Blacklist", as well as his appearances in various comedy sketches.

During Tommy’s performance, all tips collected will go directly to Christopher's Challenge, supporting the critical work they do. Come cheer him on and show your love for this local star as he steps out of his comfort zone to make a difference!

Christopher's Challenge is dedicated to educating, raising awareness, and encouraging individuals to become potential bone marrow donors. The organization also provides financial support to patients and their families at the Wilmot Cancer Center. By becoming a potential marrow donor, you could give someone a second chance at life!

During the event, attendees will have the opportunity to sign up to become a potential marrow donor. It’s simple – just complete a brief registration and a cheek swab. If you're lucky enough to match a patient, DKMS Registry will contact you for next steps.

Come join us for a fabulous day of fun, help save lives, and support an amazing cause!
