The evening also includes a live and silent auction, live music, guest bags, and a People's Choice Award. It makes for a great date night, and, of course, is for a good cause.

Last year's event raised more than $20,000 for Girl Scouts in Western Colorado. Cindi Graves, Fund Development Manager says the funds are used to " provide financial assistance to girls and adults wanting to join, support for programs like our Power Up-bullying prevention program, Fall Fun-a Taste of Girl Scouts, and Campfire Kickoff as well as training for our volunteers."

Tickets are $50 and available on line, or at the Girl Scout office at 580 24 1/2 Road in Grand Junction.
