BITE NITE 2010
Our first fundraiser took place on June 5, 2010 at Scottsdale Resort and Conference Center. PNA Center for Neurological Research teamed up with the ALS Association Arizona Chapter to co-host a night dedicated to ALS (Lou Gehrig’s Disease). BITE NITE consisted of 5 top Valley Restaurants, 5th and Wine, Cien Agaves Tacos & Tequila, Oregano's Pizza Bistro and Va Bene who served up samplers of their best dishes, with great entertainment by our favorite local band Dearspeak, with silent and live auctions. The night was an absolute blast and a success. People enjoyed great food while enjoying each other’s company for a night that was dedicated to funding ALS research. Thank you for everyone who truly made this night a success. Due to the positive praise and feedback, BITE NITE will be an annual event, so if you weren’t able to attend, we look forward to seeing you there next year! Thanks again for your support, dedication and contributions, we couldn’t have made this night possible without you.
