Charlotte's Myers Park neighborhood is home to the original Booty Loop, and July 30-31 it will come alive as the home of 24 Hours of Booty. In parternship with presenting sponsor, Blumenthal Cancer Center, 24 Hours of Booty Charlotte will celebrate its ninth year and host 1,200 riders who will raise more than $1 milllion for cancer research and surviorship.

Young Adults for the Alzheimer’s Association is a community group formed of young professionals in the Charlotte area. Young Adults for the Alzheimer's Association (YAAA) was created to raise awareness of Alzheimer's disease amongst the young adult population. Just as importantly, we hope this group will be able to offer support to our peers and to provide a platform for advocacy and involvement in fighting this horrible disease. Bet on A Cure is the second annual casino night fundraiser for the YAAA group. Tickets will be sold for $50 until June 1, 2010. With a ticket, drinks, food and starting chips are provided. Casino Night winners will get to choose from a selection of items donated by the community including autographed sports memorabilia, vacation packages and merchandise. Larger items will also be available for auction. The event will be black tie!
