Look out Carolina Panthers. There is a new football team in town and they face off tomorrow!

Blondes vs. Brunettes is a volunteer-driven event that raises awareness and funds for the Alzheimer’s Association. Two teams of women – divided to reflect the age-old rivalry between blondes and brunettes – compete in a flag football game to help end Alzheimer’s. The participants also recruit coaches, announcers and other volunteers to build an atmosphere of fierce, friendly competition.

Leading up to game day, the two teams participated in a series of events to socialize and increase awareness for Alzheimer’s disease – including a draft party and player auction on April April 25 at Crave Dessert Bar.

In the fall of 2005, the first Blondes vs. Brunettes event was held in Washington D.C. Organized by a group of young women with a personal connection to the cause, the event quickly became a success and has since expanded to include additional events. In its short history, Blondes vs. Brunettes has raised more than $800,000.
