Charlottesville Young Professionals, 91.9 WNRN, & cVillain are inviting YOU to come and get your Zombie on, Friday, October 30th. The event is scheduled to kick off @ 10:10PM on the Downtown Mall, and we will be crawling our fleshless, thirsty way through South Street Brewery, The X-Lounge, Blue Light, ZoCaLo, Rapture, and ending with a dance party @ Ventana.
This event is a benefit for the Jefferson Area Food Bank, so please bring a non-perishable food item to donate.
We will provide more details as the event creeps closer, so stay tuned!

Our friends over at The X-Lounge are holding their second weekly Dine & Donate sponsorship, benefiting the Sexual Assault Resource Agency (SARA). Their goal is to donate 10% of all Wednesday food revenue to a local non-profit.
This is one small way to give to the community while also enjoying all the delicious items on the menu. Highly recommended are the Mushroom Dusted Tuna, the Mini Burgers (Portabello, Crab Cake, & Beef), and of course the Mac ‘N Cheese.
If you represent a local agency, and would like to be featured, please contact Jessica @ 974-6500.

Opportunity! I bum-rushed him with as much cVillainy as his senses—and his liver—could handle. Below is our hitlist from the weekend. »Read More
