Formerly called the Bikers Ball, the Holiday Bash is a Christmas event that has been one of, if not the largest contributor to the Western Kentucky Toys for Tots fundraising campaign. Jimmy Rhoades told me, "The benefit has assisted the Toys for Tots campaign, along with many other local businesses in helping take care of thousands of children each year in the 11 local counties serviced by the GySgt. W.J. Norris Detachment #804 Marine Corps League".

You want to mark your calendar for December 1 and plan to attend the 2012 Holiday Bash. It's at the James L. Yates American Legion Post #9 at 118 West Veteran's Blvd. in downtown Owensboro.
