Proceeds from the brunch will benefit the Sin Sity Sisters AIDS Drug Assistance Program and the FOCUS Hot Meals Program, both of which will also be the beneficiaries of the net proceeds from BigHorn Rodeo to be held in September at Horseman’s Park.

Leaders from many Las Vegas organizations will serve as table hosts for the brunch and include Kandice Kane (Miss NGRA 2008 1st Runnerup), Darren Wernette (Mr. NGRA 2008 1st Runnerup), DeShannon (former Miss NGRA and Miss IGRA), Kitty Litter, Sisters from the Sin Sity Sisters, Helen Twelvetrees and Tim Conroy (FOCUS), Tago LeFlemme and Bill Warbeck (Elected Empress & Emperor of the IRSCDEI).

Service will be plated under the direction of Chef Dan Shannon. Shannon is Executive Chef of the Stirling Club, operated by the Charlie Palmer Group. Shannon began his career in 1995 at Aureole, Palmer’s famous New York eatery.

The Nevada Gay Rodeo Association proudly supports its royalty, Mr. NGRA Michael Judkins and Miss NGRA Katrina, as they begin to meet their requirements for competing for Mr. & Miss IGRA 2009. The brunch is the first of two fundraisers each will have to plan and promote.

Tickets are $40 each, and table hosts will be selling tickets for their table. For further information, contact Katrina at missngra2008@ngra.com or Michael at MrNGRA2008@ngra.com.
