The Woodward Dream Cruise, which rolls into metro Detroit next week, isn’t only focused on revving engines and hot cars. Paragon residents won’t want to miss this.
From 6-10 p.m. Friday, Aug. 20, Westborn Market will play host to The Champagne Cruise, an elegant affair with a mission – to drive hunger out of metro Detroit. For the eighth consecutive year Westborn Markets are working with Forgotten Harvest, metro Detroit’s largest mobile food rescue organization. Last year, The Champagne Cruise raised enough money to provide more than 600,000 meals to the community.
“Each year, cruisers think about that nostalgic drive up and down Woodward Avenue, but for us, each day we think about our cruise of 25 trucks along the streets of Metro Detroit to rescue millions of pounds of food each year to provide to families in need,” said Susan Goodell, president and CEO of Forgotten Harvest. “The Champagne Cruise has been a great way for us to celebrate a day distinctly Detroit’s, while benefiting people in need.”
Participating eateries this year include:
- P.F. Changs
- Peabody’s
- Westborn Market
- Brio Tuscan Grille
- The Henry
- Dirty Dog Jazz Café
- What Crepe
- Blazo’s Pie Shoppe
- Shriners Silver Garden Events Center
- The Cupcake Station
- Pointe Dairy
- The Great Lakes Coffee Roasting Company
- ENVO
- Rochester Mills Beer Co.
Guests are of course treated to chilled champagne, live music by the Sun Messengers, and a chance to participate in a live or silent auction featuring weekend getaways, VIP tickets and more.
Tickets to The Champagne Cruise are $150 each ($100 of which is tax deductible) and are available online at www.forgottenharvest.org or by calling Cindy Corey at 248-967-1500 ext. 115.
