Junior Women's Club to host charity event

The Elizabethtown Junior Woman's Club will host a cocktail event Friday to raise money for SpringHaven Domestic Violence Program and the American Red Cross.

"This is brand new. We wanted to have something else to do that would be really fun and different," said event chairwoman Leanna Milby. The Junior Woman's Club organizes multiple fundraisers and is best known for its Holiday Marketplace.

The event, to be held 7 to 10 p.m. at Holiday Inn Express in Elizabethtown, includes hors d'oeuvres, dancing, free photo sessions and door prizes including gift cards and tickets to local entertainment venues.

The group wanted to support other woman by donating to SpringHaven as well as support a broader charity, the Red Cross.
