The 2010 Bras Across The Mississippi event is fast approaching. All bras donated will decorate a bridge across the Mississippi River. In addition, Riverwalk Hotel Casino in Vicksburg, MS, will be donating $1 to American Cancer Society for every brassiere collected. Once the event is over, all bras in good condition will be cleaned and donated to woman's shelters in Central Mississippi.
Of course, in SPQ fashion, there will be a section dedicated to "embellished" undergarments. As an example, here is a photo of my decorated bra hanging on the bridge last year.
This year, I have a black bra that no longer fits right that I'm going to decorate. I think beaded zebra stripes might be in order.
If you're ready and willing, send your bras to :
JAN MICHAELS
CLEAR CHANNEL RADIO
1375 BEASLEY ROAD
JACKSON, MS. 39206
They're due in to Jan by Friday, October 29th. If you're outside of Mississippi, I'd get yours in the mail no later than Tuesday, October 26th.
