Mr. Legs XXVI
You don't want to miss Bridge House/Grace House's 26th Annual Mr. Legs Competition, as male contestants strut their stuff on stage and show a little leg for charity.
This event, presented by the Oscar J. Tolmas Charitable Trust, is a beauty pageant where the man who raises the most money for charity will take home the title of Mr. Legs XXVI on Saturday, July 11 from 6 to 10 p.m. at Generations Hall.
Mr. Legs doesn't just serve as a parody of a beauty pageant. Contestants wear costumes and perform on onstage for a few minutes while entertaining the crowd, all for fundraising to benefit the Bridge House/Grace House. Funds are solicited before and during the event and the title of "Mr. Legs" is awarded to the person who collected the most donations. Prizes are also awarded to the first and second runners up. Prizes in various categories, such as Best Costume, Sexiest Legs, Hairiest Legs, Skinniest Legs, and Best Performance, are also presented by a celebrity judge.
Donate & Fight Substance Use Disorder
Working to treat individuals with substance use disorder for over 65 years, the Bridge House/Grace House has served to provide substance-use disorder treatment services to the community. They use their unique approach to provide for most of their residents who have lost everything due to their addiction. They believe that it is their responsibility to respond to and secure the resources necessary to meet the needs of individuals struggling with addiction.
Mr. Legs provides services to over 650 men and women each year to offer to those who do not have the resources for private treatment: the homeless, indigent, uninsured, underinsured, and/or unemployed.
