Lastweek we had the pleasure of providing a ShutterBooth<\/a> for the Girls in the Game<\/a> 15th Anniversary Gala. This year’s fund raising event was held at the Marriott Magnificent Mile<\/a> and we were excited to be a sponsor for such a great organization!<\/p>\n

Girls in the Game<\/a> is a local nonprofit whose mission is to provide and promote sports & fitness opportunites, nutrion & health education, and leadership developement to enhance the overall health and well-being of girls. They have partnerships with the Chicago Park District<\/a> and Chicago Public schools<\/a> and they run programs at Union Park and various other parks and schools throughout Chicagoland.<\/p>\n

Attendees of the event were treated to dinner & cocktails, photobooth photos, and a raffle and silent auction. After dinner they presented a program celebrating champions reflecting the four pillars of Girls in the Game’s mission: Sports, Health, Leadership, and Life. Sarah Reinersten<\/a> was the guest honor for the event – she is an American athlete and motivational speaker. She was the first female leg amputee to complete the Ironman Traithlon World Championship in Kona, Hawaii. Check out her story<\/a> – she is quite an inspiration!<\/p>\n

Everyone had a blast in the ShutterBooth – be sure to check out the photos in the ShutterYou gallery<\/a>.<\/p>\n

**One of my favorite photos of the night (posted to the left) is a huge group of women from the Chicago Force<\/a>! The Chicago Force is Chicago’s Professional Woman’s Football Team. They are quite a group – last year they made it to the playoffs and were the 2008 Eastern Conference Champions.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
