Georgetown’s Countdown to the Oscars

Granted, the Oscars are in full swing as I write this and there are plenty of red carpet events going on tonight. I’m sorry to have personally missed the annual Oscar Night DC (R) benefiting the Red Cross of the National Capital Area, an event which I was involved with for 3 years, since it’s inception.

Thanks to everyone who came out to last Thursday evening’s Countdown to the Oscars at Fitness Together benefiting the American Red Cross Haitian Earthquake Relief Fund. Close to 300 people made it by over the course of three hours to enjoy tastes by Mie N Yu, Cafe Milano, Sweetgreen, and libations from Moet & Chandon, Paradise Springs Winery, Anheuser Busch Select 55, Bacardi 42 Below, Muscle Milk, Honest Beverages film screenings in the courtyard and swag bags. There are more details in the nice article Emily Miller wrote in The Georgetown Dish and the DC Hotspots video below.  Thanks to Washington Life, Atlantic Valet and all of the sponsors and you for donating thousands to the cause.
