Farm Fresh Takes Tailgating Upscale to Benefit Hurricane Victims

VIRGINIA BEACH, Va. -- While many football fans feast on hot dogs and beer during tailgating season, the Farm Fresh Charitable Foundation is hosting an upscale tailgating event that will benefit local charities and victims of Hurricane Katrina. The Ultimate Farm Fresh Tailgate Gala will take place Friday, Oct. 21 from 7 p.m. to 10 p.m. at the Virginia Sports Hall of Fame and Museum in Olde Towne Portsmouth.

The Ultimate Tailgate Gala will feature bountiful gourmet food stations, wine tastings, grilling and cooking demonstrations on the private patio, casino games, interactive exhibits, sports theater, a world-class silent auction, and live music. CBS television personality Mr. Food will sign copies of his latest book, "Dinner on the Double."

Tickets for the Ultimate Tailgate Gala are $125 per person, $200 per couple.

Each year, the Farm Fresh Charitable Foundation donates more than $700,000 to more than 1,500 local non-profit organizations in southeast Virginia and northeast North Carolina. The foundation is aligned with Farm Fresh Supermarkets, a regional Supervalu-owned chain based in Virginia Beach, Va.
