YMCA of Greater Kansas City – Challenge Your Fashion

The sixth annual Challenge Your Fashion event to benefit the YMCA of Greater Kansas City’s Challenger Program was held on January 19th at the Muehlebach Tower of the Kansas City Marriott Downtown. Guests enjoyed dinner, silent and live auctions, great music, and a fabulous fashion show featuring current and former Royals players on the catwalk. Ashley and Luke Hochevar and Danny Duffy were the co-hosts, and Lisa and Scott Hallier were the chairmen. Proceeds from the event will help build the next phase of the Pryor YMCA Challenger Sports Complex.
