As everyone who reads this site knows, one charity organization that the Jills and their alumni have been heavily involved in the past few years is the Blondes Vs Brunettes football games. The first year it was held in Buffalo, Jills director Stephanie Mateczun was one of 2 Jills alumni that played in the game. Last year, 6 alumni played and there are 8 involved this year. The organization is all about benefiting the Alzheimer's Association and in addition to the game, they hold various events throughout the summer leading up to the game. Last night, they held a Beer Blast at Kronie's Bar and Grill in Kenmore where a $20 ticket got you all the beer you could drink as well as a buffet to help soak up that alcohol. 3 of the Jills alumni (Jenn, Amanda, and Danielle) made it to this event and Amanda and Jenn even won gift baskets that were raffled off to everyone in attendance. See the pics at http://buffaloprocheerbuffalojills.shutterfly.com/pictures/25704 and don't miss the other events coming up. The kickoff party takes place August 19th from 6-9pm at SoHo and they've added an extra twist this year...some of the girls will be auctioned off as dates and besides the Jills alumni involved, there are definitely some beauties involved this year. The game takes place September 10th at 2pm at Sweet Home High School in Amherst and if last year's game is any indication, it should be a fierce match-up.
